Shall Be filled

Matthew 5:6 “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” (KJV) Yesterday, we talked about the hunger and thirst part of this scripture.  Today, we want to deal with the last part; “for they shall be filled.”   

We talked about the continuous action of hungering and thirst, how it is a way of life and not just a one time event.   As we hunger and thirst, we shall be filled.  The more we hunger and thirst, the more we shall be filled.  

What I love about this Christian life is that we will never reach a stage where we “have arrived” or a state of perfection.  There are always higher levels to achieve.  We go faith to faith and glory to glory.  How awesome.    

Sanctification is a process. We do not accept or rest at the level that we’re on.   So as we hunger and thirst, we shall be filled and the more we hunger and thirst, we shall be filled.  It goes on and on, hungering, thirsting, yet filled and satisfied, but longing for more, never having enough.

 

WOW!!!!!!!  We can be fully satisfied, yet longing for more of HIM.  OHHHHHHHHH , I just LOVE GOD!!!!!!!   

Don’t forget to pray and read God’s word daily.
