Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Verse 3) Blessed are the meek: for they shall possess the land. (Verse 4) Blessed are they who mourn: for they shall be comforted. (Verse 5) Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after justice: for they shall have their fill.
Jesus said, âFor where your treasure is, there your heart will be alsoâ (Matthew 6:21). But Jesus also said that there is another kind of spiritual povertyâone we should seek. He said, âBlessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heavenâ (Matthew 5:3). What did He mean? Simply this: We must be humble in our spirits. If you put the word âhumbleâ in place of the word âpoor,â you will understand what He meant. In other words, when we come to God, we must realize our own sin and our spiritual emptiness and poverty. We must not be self-satisfied or proud in our hearts, thinking we donât really need God. If we are, God cannot bless us.
