Today’s Scripture: October 2
“God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs” (Matthew 5.3).

 

 
The Sermon on the Mount is an impressive sermon Jesus gave to His disciples, with crowds gathered around him, on the hillside of the Sea of Galilee. Similar in many ways to God’s giving of the 10 Commandments to Moses, the Beatitudes represent the giving of the spirit of the law.

 
Jesus taught that Kingdom citizens desire to give God glory and conduct themselves with a maturity of spirit. Their “perfection” is a complete spiritual maturity. Do you reflect these attitudes? Do you desire God to receive glory from your life, or do you find yourself fighting for and demanding rights for yourself?
