Today’s Word from God’s Word-Blessed
JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Blessed.
To be blessed is to be in a state of happiness. The favor of God is a source of blessing to the follower of Jesus. When we walk in the love of God and are set free by His truth, we are in a very blessed condition.
In Matthew 5, verses 3 through 10, Jesus declared a series of blessings in the Sermon on the Mount when He said,
Blessed are the poor in spirit.
Blessed are those who mourn.
Blessed are the meek.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness.
Blessed are the merciful.
Blessed are the pure in heart.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness.
Jesus taught us the way to live and showed us how to live a life that honors God and invites His blessing.
