Completely satisfied

Blessed and fortunate and happy and spiritually prosperous (in that state in which the born again child of God enjoys His favour and salvation) are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God), for they shall be completely satisfied! Matthew 5:6 AMP

What makes you completely satisfied? Is it the presents you received this Christmas? Is it having a certain amount of money in the bank? What happens if that money is no longer there?  Is it having the best of best of a certain 'thing'? What happens if you can never obtain it, or if when you do, you lose it? Is it having the most delicious meal you have ever had? What happens when you are hungry again?

The Bible tells us we will be completely satisfied when we hunger and thirst for right-standing with God. Jesus teaches us again in Matthew 6, that our focus needs to be on our Heavenly Father, His kingdom and righteousness.

For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all. But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given to you besides. Matthew 6:32-33 AMP

Question for today, do you hunger and thirst for right-standing with God? We have the opportunity through our saviour, Jesus, to be in right-standing with God. So let's not hold back. Let's humbly seek Him and be completely satisfied.

The humble shall see it and be glad; you who seek God, inquiring for and requiring Him [as your first need], let your hearts revive and live! Psalm 69:32 AMP
