This exposition examines Jesus’ teaching concerning divine blessing in the life of believers who have found favor from God by focusing on the first descriptor of kingdom citizens who are “poor in spirit.”

Blessed are those who Mourn
This exposition examines the profound importance Jesus placed on mourning over personal sin which grieves God’s heart and the divine comfort He grants to those who are truly filled with contrition.

Blessed are the Meek
This exposition continues in the progressive sequence of the beatitudes by examining three important aspects of meekness, namely, what it’s not, what it is and what are its benefits.

Longing for Righteousness
This exposition delves into what it means to “hunger and thirst for righteousness” and offers three ways to develop it, namely, acknowledging the deepest need of our soul, abandoning the lusts of our heart and absorbing the milk of the Word.

Bearing the Fruit of Mercy
This exposition examines the meaning of being merciful—one of the fruits of the preceding four heart attitudes—and offers three essential internal convictions crucial for the exercise of Godly mercy, namely, affirm the Law of God, appeal to the mercy of God and apply the love of God.

Purity of Heart
This exposition examines the issue of purity of heart. Special consideration is given to the heart of purity (the source and substance of purity); the path of purity (how we must strive for more purity and why); and the result of purity (what God has promised).

Blessed are the Peacemakers
After discussing the relentless conflict and turmoil in the world and the futile attempts to secure a lasting peace on earth, this exposition examines the enemies of peace, the pathway to peace and the blessings of peace.

Blessed are the Persecuted
This exposition examines the issues of being persecuted for the sake of righteousness—the inevitable consequence of a kingdom citizen who manifests the preceding marks of genuine saving faith. Special consideration is offered concerning the weapons, the purpose and the triumph of persecution.
