Broken for Battle: Strength Under the Rein | Matthew 5:5-6 | Nick Johnson

This sermon continues through the Beatitudes by examining Jesus’ words, “Blessed are the meek” and “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness.” Using the image of a trained warhorse, it shows that biblical meekness is not weakness, but strength held under the control of God’s Spirit. The sermon then connects that controlled strength to a deep hunger for righteousness — both the longing to be made right with God and the longing to see the world made right under Christ. Ultimately, Jesus promises that this hunger will be satisfied in Him, as He fills His people with His righteousness now and will one day renew the whole earth in righteousness.
