Welcome to Biblical Talks Encouraging Word for the Week, I am Rachel Tolliver “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled!” (Matt. 5:6)

Listen, saints—hunger for righteousness is not ordinary. It’s not natural to the flesh. It’s supernatural! It’s a sign that something divine is alive inside of you. Dead folk don’t get hungry. Spiritually dead folk don’t crave holiness. But if you’re hungering—if you’re thirsting—if you’re yearning to be more like Jesus, then saints, you’re alive!

 That hunger is proof! Proof that the Spirit is working. Proof that grace is growing. Proof that heaven has touched your soul.

Listen: when your appetite disappears, that’s a sign of sickness. But when it comes back? That’s a sign of healing! And in the same way, when you start craving the Word again… when you start thirsting for prayer again… when you start longing to walk upright before God again—that’s a sign that your soul is recovering, that your spirit is being revived!

So don’t ignore that hunger. Don’t suppress that thirst. Feed it! Fuel it! Fan it into flame! Because the promise still stands: “They shall be filled.” Not maybe. Not might. Shall! That’s a guarantee from the mouth of Jesus himself.
