The Blessed

[RMathews]

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

( Mathew 5:3-12 )

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up ### and their prayer request. We thank you for the teachings of Jesus in Matthew 5:3-12, where He declares the blessedness of those who embody the qualities of the poor in spirit, the mourners, the meek, the hungerers and thirsters after righteousness, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, and those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake.

Lord, we pray for ### and all those who are seeking to live according to these blessed qualities. May they experience the fullness of your kingdom and the comfort that comes from mourning. Grant them the inheritance of the earth as they walk in meekness. Fill their hearts with a hunger and thirst for righteousness, and satisfy them with your abundant grace. Shower them with your mercy as they extend mercy to others. Help them to cultivate purity of heart so that they may see you more clearly. Empower them to be peacemakers, bringing reconciliation and unity wherever they go. And Lord, strengthen and uphold those who face persecution for their commitment to righteousness, reminding them that their reward in heaven is great.

We pray that ### and all who desire to live according to these teachings would find strength, guidance, and encouragement in their journey. May they be a light in this world, reflecting the character of Christ and drawing others closer to you.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Prayer Focus: God, I ask You in Jesus' name that I will "NOT" be anxious, worry, fear, or stress out. But that I will come to You in prayer about everything and talk it over with You. I will come to You humbly, with sincere intense conviction, and thanksgiving in my heart. Knowing that You can do all things but fail. I will make my request known unto You and wait for Your reply. God let Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guard my heart and mind through Christ Jesus after I pray and talk it over with You. God all that I have asked of You in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of this prayer. Thank You Jesus. Amen, so be it by faith, and by faith, it is so.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
