God blesses the poor, those who realize they need Him!

 Matthew 5:3

“God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for Him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.

This is wonderful! Knowing that the kingdom of heaven belongs to us! As children of God, this is our inheritance, which is why we must never give up hope and our faith, as this will fulfill the intentions of the enemy, to pull us away from the Lord and miss out on our inheritance. Hence, God recognizing the poor, is humbling. Being poor in this context I believe covers many aspects, besides the economic terms. Yes financial, but also poor in peace, in spirit where one is tormented by thoughts or demons. Also poor as the result of them being unable to do things for themselves, where they depend on others (including physical disabilities and even mental disabilities), and many others. All of that, God says the kingdom of heaven belongs to them. Those who are oppressed, poor in freedom, the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.

Thus, when we are in any or all of the above state, the best thing we can do for ourselves, is to realize that we NEED God. This is when the real change and transformation takes place, where we surrender to Him. This is like an activation of God's mercy and power over His children. but whilst we still have pride and thinking that we can do things for ourselves, God stands back. This obviously leads to our struggle. Therefore, never despise the moments when you feel broken, in lack or despised, that's when God will go all out for you. Just trust Him and most importantly invite Him into your situation and surrender. God will bless you!
