Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5

At that time, Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavily laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:25-30.

Behold, I send you forth as sheep among wolves: be you therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves. Matthew 10:16

And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples, Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway you shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me. And if any man says ought unto you, you shall say, The Lord requires them; and straightway he will send them. All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, Tell you the daughter of Sion, Behold, your King comes unto you meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. Matthew 21:1-5.

This is really important, you have to know this:

  • The King has spoken. His kingdom does not belong to the forceful, the ambitious, or the self-exalting.

  • It belongs to the meek, those who come to Him, learn from Him, and walk in His ways.

  •  He sends His followers into a hostile world, not with weapons, but with wisdom and gentleness.

  •  And this word cannot be broken for it is spoken by the One to whom the Father has delivered all things.

  • He is meek.  He is lowly. He is King. And His promise stands forever.

Let every ear hear and every heart take heed: the earth will not be inherited by the mighty of this world, but by the meek of His kingdom.
