The Book of Matthew 5 v-2 thru 12

2 He began to teach them, saying: 3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land. 6 Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 8 Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. 10 Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you [falsely] because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

The feeling of Salvation resonates deeply in the Beatitudes found in Matthew 5:1-12. These verses outline the characteristics and attitudes that lead to true happiness and blessings in the eyes of God. Each Beatitude offers a glimpse into the transformative power of Salvation and the eternal rewards that come from living a life in accordance with God's will.

One of the most powerful Beatitudes that speaks to the feeling of Salvation is found in Matthew 5:3, which states, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." This verse highlights the importance of humility and recognizing our need for God's grace and Salvation. By acknowledging our spiritual poverty and surrendering ourselves to God, we open ourselves up to receiving the ultimate gift of eternal life in His kingdom.

The feeling of Salvation is also evident in Matthew 5:8, which says, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." This verse emphasizes the importance of purity, modesty and sincerity in our relationship with God. By seeking to purify our hearts and align our desires with God's will, we are able to experience the presence of God in our lives and ultimately see Him face to face in eternity.

The Beatitudes in Matthew 5 serve as a roadmap for experiencing the feeling of Salvation in our lives. By embodying the attitudes and characteristics outlined in these verses, we are able to experience the fullness of God's blessings and the joy of living in His kingdom both now and for all eternity. Amen.

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. The Lord’s Prayer.

At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen Son in Law Mark Stern; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Our prayers for our niece Brittany. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**The Beatitudes blessed are they are you**

Blessed are the poor in spirit,

For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Humble and meek, they shall inherit,

The riches of God's grace given.

Blessed are those who mourn and weep,

For they shall be reassured.

In their sorrow, God will keep,

And wipe away your tears rest assured.

Blessed are the meek and mild,

For they shall inherit the earth.

In their gentle spirit, reconciled,

To God's love and eternal worth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst,

For righteousness and justice true.

Their hearts and souls will be immersed,

In God's mercy, pure and new. Amen.
