Imagine sitting on a peaceful hillside with hundreds of people, listening as Jesus begins to teach about how to live a life that pleases God. This powerful moment is known as The Sermon on the Mount, one of the most beautiful and important teachings in the entire Bible. 🌿
In this sermon, found in Matthew chapters 5 to 7, Jesus shares how true happiness doesn’t come from money or fame—it comes from having a pure heart and living for God. He starts with the Beatitudes, where He says things like, “Blessed are the peacemakers,” and “Blessed are the pure in heart.” These words remind us that God blesses those who choose kindness, humility, mercy, and faithfulness.
Jesus also teaches about loving your enemies, giving without showing off, praying sincerely (like in the Lord’s Prayer), and building your life on a solid foundation—His Word. He shows us that being a follower of God means more than just doing good things on the outside; it’s about having the right heart on the inside. ❤️
The Sermon on the Mount reminds us that living for Jesus isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it. When we follow His teachings, we shine like a light in this world and bring glory to our Heavenly Father.
