True Spiritual Hunger (Matthew 5:6)
The crowds Jesus was addressing were generally very religiously committed; their very cultural and national identity was defined by their religion. Among them, also, were the extremely committed and in many areas doctrinally sound Pharisees. But what they all have in common is a sense of security and self-sufficiency in their religion. But Jesus is cutting through all of that and addressing the one thing that really matters: the inner realities of the heart. This morning we come to “blessed are those who are hungering and thirsting after righteousness.”

Hungry for the Holy Spirit
The Day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit came to fill believers is a perfect example of the fact that we have to hunger and thirst for the things of God if we are going to experience them. The disciples gathered every day for at least 30 days to pray and wait for the Holy Spirit. They were doing what Jesus told them to do. If we are going to receive all that God has for us, we are going to have to be hungry enough to do what the Bible says to do.

What are you hungry for
Have you ever had a craving for something, and no matter how much other stuff you eat, if it’s not what you were craving, it you will not be satisfied until you get what you were craving. Jesus said that we were supposed to hunger and thirst, or crave, after the things of God. A natural hunger will motivate you to do something. If we are truly hungering and thirsting for the things of God, we are willing to do something about it.

Revival in the City
God revives His people, restoring them to a normal spiritual experience. All Christians and churches experience times of spiritual entropy and apathy resulting in decline. In that distress, we are to remember God is a compassionate, covenant-keeping God and cry out to him, confessing our sin that He might restore us for the well-being of the city.
