A hunger for righteousness is a desire for a right standing before God. Those with this desire won't try to escape the world, and they won't feel intimidated by it. And God promises they will be filled.

What are you passionate about? In the Beatitudes, the hunger for righteousness speaks of an intense, all--consuming passion, like Moses asking to see God's glory, or like Paul's plea, "Oh, that I might know Him."

Jesus promises that the meek will be blessed, and that they will inherit the earth. But beyond that, meekness is necessary for us to witness effectively to the world, and for the church to function smoothly.

As Paul wrote to the Philippians, the source of his joy had changed from glorying in his own standing as a Jewish leader, to glorying in the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Trusting totally in Christ is our security.
June 18, 2008
The theme of the entire book of Philippians is joy. Paul preached that true joy comes through making Jesus Christ the center of your life, and by serving others. Jesus modeled this by being the servant of all.
