BLESSED ARE THE MEEK

FOR THEY SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH (MATT:5:5)

meekness: gentle, showing patience, humility

cross reference: to speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers but gentle shewing meekness to all men (Titus 3:2)

to inherit something means to come into procession, to be made an heithat 7th verse tells us that being justified by his grace we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life

when we become a child of God we become his heirs & as an heir we are promised the inheritance of eternal life

for in my Father's house are many mansions if it were not so I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you (John14:2)

meekness plays an important role in our walk with God to live in peace we must walk in peace

cross reference: they shall delight themselves in abundance of peace (PS.37:11)

1st Peter 3:7 also reminds  us even as couples how important that it is to live in peace with one each other so that our prayers be not hindered

Blessed are the meek

Have you shown gentleness

Have you shown patience

Have you shown mercy

When was the last time you humbled yourself before God & said

Lord here I am!

when we become humble it is then we walk in an abundance of peace
