““God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.”
Matthew 5:3 NLT
This scripture does not relate to finances, though many have taken it to mean it. When we recognise we lack spiritually, that we are desperate for God and all that He is, then we are truely blessed. We become attractive to God when we know our need for Him.
I saw a cartoon in which there was one person in the whole congregation hungry for God and the rest were bored and busy on their phones. The One received God’s love, for that person hungered and thirsted after Him.
If we are in church without this hunger we are wasting our time. We are there for Him, to seek Him and find Him, to worship Him corporately. Corporate worship can be so powerful if all hearts are yearning together.
In our own private time we need to cultivate this hunger. I am in a place where I need to hunger and thirst after Him. In Nepal sleeping on a hard pillow being challenged with physical problems, bad internet and not access to good food, no hot water, bad toilet facilities and shared kitchen facilities, I have to seek Him, He is my life source. He is my power. Amen!
