Mat 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled
Those 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.

The 8 Beatitudes are a set of teachings given by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount in the Bible. They outline the blessings that come to those who exhibit certain virtues, such as humility, mercy, and purity of heart. They are found in the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 5.
Thirst in a physical sense, tells us when our body needs water. It's a good reminder and it can save our lives. Thirst is often mentioned in the Bible in a SPIRITUAL sense. At Matthew 5:6 Jesus says that if you 'hunger and thirst for righteousness' you will be filled. At times when you're REALLY physically thirsty, all you can think about is getting a big glass of water, and you won't be satisfied until you've had your fill, because your body NEEDS water to live. In the same way, for those who LONG for truth and righteousness, they won't give up until they find the truth of God that gives them rest. They will search for God until they find him, and he will LET himself be found by those who are TRULY thirsting for God's righteousness. (Acts 17:26 & 27) (1 Chronicles 28:9)(2 Chronicles 15:15) (John 6:35) Jesus said: "I am the bread of life. He that comes to me will not get hungry at all, and he that exercises faith in me will never get thirsty at all. Again, this is speaking spiritually. Once a person has found 'the truth', they no longer feel that desperation; they no longer THIRST spiritually. They are satisfied and content. As Jesus promised....because they thirsted and never gave up, they are 'filled". (John 4:14)(John 7:37)(Revelation 22:17)
