PROMISE FOR FEBRUARY 21ST

"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matthew 5:6

"They shall be filled"--they shall be satisfied....We have the Lord's guarantee of the blessing for all who are in the attitude of mind to seek and to use the spiritual refreshments He provides. R. 3735, c.1, p.1-2.

"According to your faith be it unto you," is the promise. The desire to draw nearer and nearer to God must be in our heart; else we shall fail to go on and attain our privilege in Christ. Such a desire is a manifestation of our hunger and thirst after righteousness, which the Lord expects to see before He makes good to such His engagement that they shall be filled. R. 5425, c.1, p.1.
