Sunday Sermon: 22 February 2026

from Stonelaw Church · host Rev. Neil H Watson

In this fourth message of the BLESSED series, we lean into one of Jesus’ most searching promises: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” Drawing from Matthew 5:6 and the powerful challenge of Isaiah 58, this sermon invites us to examine what we truly crave—and whether our spiritual appetite has grown dull on lesser things. This episode gently confronts the distractions that quietly steal our spiritual appetite—success, comfort, approval, and endless noise—and calls us back to a deeper, daily dependence on God. We’re reminded that righteousness is both a gift and a pursuit: declared over us by grace through Jesus, and then lived out in practical, Spirit-filled obedience. If you’ve felt spiritually restless, aware that something deeper is missing, or challenged by the gap between belief and action, this message is an invitation to let God stir holy hunger within you again—and to trust His promise to truly satisfy. 📖 Key Text: Matthew 5:6 🕊️ Theme: A holy hunger for God shapes both our hearts and our hands 🎧 Takeaway: When we crave righteousness above all else, God fills and transforms us
