Completely Satisfied
Today's Scripture
“Blessed, fortunate, happy and spiritually prosperous…are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
uprightness and right standing with God, for they shall be completely satisfied” (Matthew 5:6 AMP).
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
God longs to pour out his abundant blessing on every area of your life. He wants you to live completely
satisfied. When you hunger and thirst for righteousness--God’s way of doing things--then you will live
in complete satisfaction. You direct your hunger by choosing what you focus on. For example, if you
focus on your favorite food, if you start thinking about it early in the morning, and all throughout
the day, chances are, by the end of the day you’ll be eating it! What you give your attention to, you
will desire. In the same way, the more you give your attention to God and His Word, the more you will
hunger for Him. Just like the scripture promises, when you hunger for righteousness, you will be
completely satisfied. The world offers so many things for you to give your attention to, but they
aren’t things that will satisfy. You might think you want a particular car, or certain clothes, or
live in a particular neighborhood. There’s nothing wrong with those things, but understand that “things”
won’t ever satisfy you. Recognize that only God will satisfy you. As you hunger for Him, you’ll live
in peace and blessing and live completely satisfied all the days of your life!
A Prayer for Today
Father in Heaven, I come to You today, I ask for forgiveness for allowing anything to capture my heart
and attention more than You. I choose today to give You top priority, and choose to hunger for Your
righteousness. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
