The Blessed Life | Blessed | Part 3 Jesus — the Creator and the Definer of reality introduces us to the upside down kingdom of the Father in His sermon on the mount in Matthew 5:3-10What culture could call incredulous, Jesus calls true: “God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. God blesses those who mourn, for they will be comforted. God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth. God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied. God blesses those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy. God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God. God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God. God blesses those who are persecuted for doing right, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.”
The Posture of a Blessed Life - Part 3 Pastor Zach Fontaine
The world is spinning right now. What if there were a way for you to stand peacefully while it does?This week we'll read Psalm 112– a compass for uncertain times— and discover the ironic, counterintuitive, subversive truth that open hands lead to steady hearts, even when everything around us spins.Because in a world of not enough, the open-handed find life.
In this episode, we continue exploring Moses' origin story in Exodus and the question at the core of his life—Who am I? Today we go deeper to the longing beneath it: Who is my father? From a name shaped by rescue and rupture to a life searching for belonging, Moses carries a story many of us recognize—a "father hunger" to be known, chosen, and loved. At the burning bush, God meets Moses not just with answers, but with Himself—the Father who pursues, names, invites, and restores. It's a story about identity, longing, and the God who comes close, calls us His own, and sends us out to love others the same way. Recorded November 9, 2025.

Read OnlineWhile Jesus was speaking, a woman from the crowd called out and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that carried you and the breasts at which you nursed.” He replied, “Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.” Luke 11:27–28This short Gospel reading reveals much about what makes one “blessed” in life. Specifically, Jesus considers those truly blessed who do two things: “hear the word of God” and then “observe it.” Though this seems quite obvious at first read, it is often harder than it seems.The first step to a blessed life is hearing the Word of God. To “hear” implies that we do much more than become familiar with the Gospels. Hearing means we are not only aware of all that our Lord has revealed, it also means that we have truly internalized it, understanding all that our Lord requires of us.Have you heard our Lord? It's important to understand that the Gospel is alive. In other words, becoming familiar with the Word of God is not the same as reading some ancient book of lessons. Rather, hearing the Word of God means we hear a Person: the Son of God, speaking to us and guiding us each step of our lives. God's Word is something that must speak to us every moment of every day, inspiring us to do this and avoid that. It is accomplished through a lifelong habit of prayerful communion with our Lord through which we are attentive to His voice always.Hearing the very Person of the Son of God, the Word made flesh, necessarily implies that we also observe all that He speaks to us. In fact, failure to follow His continuous and gentle command to love will result in us being unable to clearly hear Him at all. We will become confused and will easily become directed by the many other voices in our world, unable to discern the glorious path chosen for us by our Lord. Reflect, today, upon whether or not you struggle in any way with both hearing and observing the voice of God. If this is your struggle, then recommit yourself to a time of humble and wholehearted discovery. Tell our Lord that you are sorry for not being attentive to Him and set yourself on a mission to seek and find Him. Reject the confusion and anxiety of life, reject the many other voices of “wisdom” within our world, and listen for His gentle but clear voice. He is always speaking. He is always calling you. He is always present. Open the eyes of your soul and give Him your full attention. And when you sense Him speaking to you, respond with the utmost generosity and obedience. Doing so will result in you discovering what it means to be truly blessed by our Lord. My blessed Lord, You are glorious beyond all things, and You invite me and all Your creatures to share in Your very life. Give me the grace I need to turn from the confusion and deceptions of life so that I will hear only You and respond only to Your voice. I commit myself to Your holy will, dear Lord. As I do, please bestow upon me every blessing You desire to give. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: A Woman Cries Out in a Crowd by James Tissot, Brooklyn Museum, Public Domain.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc.

In this life you will suffer through trials and tribulations. Jesus said that if you want to live a godly life, you will be persecuted. These are promises we don't like to name and claim. We like to place our faith in happy promises that will give us joy and blessings in our lives. Pastor Ricky will be explaining that when we go through persecutions because of simply being a Christian, we can rejoice because we will receive a blessing in eternity. As you obey God, you're storing up for yourself treasure in heaven.
The Jesus WayWeek 2"The Way to a Blessed Life"Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49496769
Did you know that there are two kinds of blessings that the Bible talks about? Pastor Ricky will be explaining how there are blessings that belong to us and are secure because we are God's children but there are also blessings that are conditional based upon our obedience to our Father in heaven. If you're choosing to disobey God in a certain area, you can't expect Him to reward your disobedience by giving you blessings in that area of your life. Don't rob yourself of experiencing the best life you can live.

We often think of a blessing as a gift we receive from God. But Dr. Tony Evans explains why it's much more than that… and something we're actually meant to pursue.

Sunday morning sermon audio from Preston Highlands Baptist Church.
Send me a Text Message!As we dive into the beatitudes, we immediately run into the word "Blessed." The word is used 9x's in the first 11 verses of the Sermon on the Mount. The Living Bible translates it, "fortunate, or happy." Eugene Peterson in The Message uses the word "lucky." What is the essence of lucky? It's getting something you don't deserve. In the Greek language, the word blessed is the word makairos. How do you describe, the blessed life? Makairos? What 2 or 3 things would you like to happen in your life, where if they happened, you would consider yourself "makairos." Blessed? What is the blessed life? (And how do we get it?)
