Matthew 5 Verse 5: “Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth” {NKJV}.
Meek might rhyme with weak, but they are not alike in meaning; weak/weakness means; is a lack of physical, metal or moral strength. That is something we could say fits in more with with a lot of today’s society, ‘morally weak’.
Meek/meekness is Quite strength, the kind of power Jesus displayed, but Jesus was unafraid to confront.
Meekness also referred to as Humble. Humility is often said to be ‘Bridled-strength’. To know who you are in Christ with a sure and steady confidence and not brashness.
Galatians 5 verse 22 Tells us about the fruits of the Spirit; Love, Joy, Peace, PATIENCE, Kindness, Goodness, Faith, GENTLENESS and Self-control.
Two of the Fruits of the Spirit are covered by the one word “MEEK”.
It is a qualities that the world is desperately needs is that of. The Book of Matthew, The Beatitudes. Matthew Chapter 5.
Remember to be Meek, though it sound like weak is truly a quality, we need to be more like Jesus {Our lord and Our Friend}.
Put on Meekness, it is a quite strength, that will witness to the world, that you are one of His.
God Bless.
