Keys Of the Kingdom Godly Character for a Godless World Less is More

Bankrupt Matthew 5:3; Luke 6:20, 24

Bankrupt Matthew 5:3 3“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.   Luke 6:20 20And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Luke 6:24 24“But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.

Learning Blessedness Blessedness is a state of being, a way you are, not a possession you have. Blessed means happy, fortunate, in a good place. To be poor in spirit means to be spiritually bankrupt so that we are in need of God in our lives.

Relearning Poverty Our world has taught us how to seek after wealth, but we must learn how to become poor and destitute to see God’s Kingdom. God’s Kingdom starts inside of our hearts and spreads through the Gospel of Jesus to other hearts, until the whole world is His Kingdom. The Kingdom is characterized by people who are poor and needy for God, desperate for Him.

Key of the Kingdom When we learn to be poor in Spirit, we learn to become teachable in spiritual things. When we learn to be poor in Spirit, we experience the Kingdom of God in and around us. When we learn to be poor in Spirit, we open ourselves to the things of God with an unmatched fervor. Only when we are poor in spirit will God truly be more than enough!
