The meek shall inherit the earth

Jeremiah 39, 40

When Jeremiah’s prophecy that Jerusalem would be overcome by the Babylonians came to pass, all the rich landowners were dragged off to Babylon. Left behind were the poorest of the land. To them was given “vineyards and fields.” In essence, those who had wealth were stripped of it. It was then given to the poor.

Jesus said “Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.  Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” [Matt. 5:3-5]

Through meekness comes inheritance. You don’t have to fight for it. It all comes to you through RELATIONSHIP TO THE OWNER.
