Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This most important Christlike lifestyle opens door of lifelong happiness to you and secured and guaranteed eternity with God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek are blessed and happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek meaning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mild tempered. Gentle spirit. Meekness and lowliness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The spirit of meekness is the temper of spirit in which we accept the dealings of God with us as good, and therefore not resisting or disputing with Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meekness is yieldedness to God, submissiveness to His will, preparedness to accept whatever He may give and readiness to take the lowest place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek are the quiet and gentle spirit, unlike the proud self asserting people of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek are those who quietly submit to God, to His words and His rod, who follow His directions and comply with His designs and are gentle towards all men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They can bear provocation without being inflamed by it. Who can be cool when others are hot. Who in their patience keep possession of their souls, when they can scarcely keep possession of anything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek are those who are humble and submissive before God. They find their refuge in Him and commit their way entirely to Him <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are more concerned about God’s work and His people than what can happen to them personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek spirit helps us to rightly estimate ourselves and not thinking ourselves more highly than we ought to think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simply put, meekness is submission to the perfect willi of God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doing everything by His all sufficient grace to fulfill His will in our daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ephesians 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
James 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Peter 3:4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek are blessed and very very happy all their days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How do you develop this Christlike virtue?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Welcoming Christ into your life as Lord and Saviour and following His pattern or lifestyle in everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Lord lived a deliberate sanctified lifestyle for His followers of all ages and you in particular to learn and replicate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you conscientiously do this, you will inherit the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meek shall inherit the earth, meaning one day we will reign with Christ on earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalms 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalms 37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. 37:22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Isaiah 60:21 Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What to do continuously to be part of the inheritance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 Peter 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His grace will be sufficient for you in Jesus name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
