Matthew 5:5 NASB
Blessed are the gentle,
for they shall inherit the earth.
Devotional
The brutal have half the world.
They take shortcuts in business, traffic, family, church and work.
Brutals cut you off everywhere.
They look suspiciously like those evildoers of Psalm 37.
Before you know it, brutals are like cut grass.
To the warning of one, to reassure the other.
The meek are very different.
They exercise patience in expecting it from the Lord.
They don’t take revenge.
Envy gives way, as they roll their way upon the Lord.
Despite adversity and disappointment, He sees to it that their justice breaks through like the light.
Therefore do not envy the false success of the wicked, but delight in the Lord.
Learn from Jesus how meek He is.
More meek than Moses.
There is grace in Jesus, to deal with others in the Spirit of meekness.
Though the brutal have half the world,
the meek shall inherit the earth.
The Legitimate Heir is in charge.
Read Psalms 37 in connection to this word from Jesus!
