Devotional: Luke 6:20-26

Today’s passage: Luke 6:20-26

Helpful thoughts:

  • The poor are those who are entirely dependent on others (Or Another) to care for their needs.
  • We hunger because we cannot be satisfied with our own righteousness.
  • The one who weeps now is the one who recognizes their helpless condition before God.
  • John 15:18 –  “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.”

Questions to consider:

  1. What kind of poverty or hunger is Jesus talking about in this passage? What is true of us because of our sin?
  2. What are people not realizing if they think they are rich, full, and laughing (Happy) without Jesus?
  3. How would Jesus’ words have been an encouragement to Stephen even during his persecution (Acts 7:51-60)?  What makes us rich?  What fills us and gives us joy?  How long will our joy last?
