Bible Question:
in what way does God bless the "poor in spirit" Matthew 7: 3 |
Bible Answer: Greetings dltlshines! In Luke 6:20 Jesus says, "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God." For the Lord is near the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), He heals the brokenhearted (Psalm 147:3) and binds them (Isaiah 61:1). "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise." Psalm 51:17 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." Matthew 5:8 The poor in spirit and brokenhearted will see and be with God, and He will be their refuge. Blessings to you, Nolan |
