Another answer from our community:Mat 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filledThose who hunger and thirst for righteousness are promised satisfaction. These people have a passion for righteousness in their own lives; they long to see honesty, integrity, and justice in society; they look for practical holiness in the church. These people will be abundantly satisfied in Christ's coming kingdom: they shall be filled, for righteousness will reign and corruption will give way to the highest moral standards.
This means that those who suffer for gods sake will surelt see god in heaven. As they dide it for him.
