Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness
Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be satisfied by Christ. Just as we need physical nourishment, our spirits need constant feeding through prayer and reading. Isaiah 55:1 invites all to receive the free gift of everlasting life. Christ's living water quenches our deepest desires, providing fulfillment and everlasting life.
The cost of righteousness
The passage from Matthew 5:10-11 explains that those persecuted for righteousness' sake will inherit the kingdom of heaven. Believers are warned that the world will hate and persecute them, but they are encouraged to rejoice and be faithful, as their reward in heaven will be great. The text emphasizes the inevitability of suffering for Christ's sake and the importance of standing firm in faith.
