The Poor in Spirit


Oh the blessedness of………..

The Poor in Spirit

Matthew 5:3

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,

for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Isaiah 66:2
   

Has not my hand made all these things,
and so they came into being?”
declares the Lord.
“This is the one I esteem:
he who is humble and contrite in spirit,
and trembles at my word.

The “kingdom of Heaven” is the same thing as the “kingdom of God” — it is not being used to refer to heaven after we die. Rather, it describes God’s reign over the lives of people here on earth. Not all people are in God’s kingdom, but a person enters the kingdom by enthroning God as his king, committing himself to doing God’s will.

Sunday is coming!
