Verse of the Day

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”
— MATTHEW 5:6 (NIV)


The Appetite That Changes Everything

Jesus blesses those with:

  • A craving for purity – “God, make me more like You!”
  • A passion for justice – “Break my heart for what breaks Yours”
  • A desperation for truth – “Your Word is my daily bread”

This hunger:
✅ Exposes counterfeit comforts
✅ Drives us to the true Source
✅ Guarantees satisfaction


How to Cultivate This Hunger

1️⃣ Feast on Scripture

  • “Man does not live on bread alone…” (Matthew 4:4)

2️⃣ Fast from junk food

  • Distractions, compromise, half-truths

3️⃣ Join God’s justice work

  • “What injustice makes my soul ache? How can I act?”

Prayer of Holy Dissatisfaction
Righteous Father,
I confess I’ve snacked on:

  • 🍬 Cultural quick-fixes
  • 🥤 Shallow spirituality
  • 🍕 Busyness instead of bread of life

Starve my soul of:
❌ Complacency
❌ Compromise

Fill me with:
🔥 A zeal for Your house (John 2:17)
⚖️ A passion for justice (Micah 6:8)
✝️ A craving for Christ alone

In Jesus’ name, Amen.


🔥 Hunger Challenge

  1. Swap one habit: Trade 30 min of scrolling for Scripture
  2. Stand up: Address one injustice in your sphere today

🌾 “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry.” (John 6:35)
