Take Up Your Cross


Prompt:
In Matthew 5:5-6, we have the next two beatitudes.

Matthew 5:5-6
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

What do these mean to you?

Answer:
In verse five, what does it mean to be meek?
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/meek?s=t
meek
[ meek ]SHOW IPA
See synonyms for: meek / meekly / meekness on Thesaurus.com
adjective, meek·er, meek·est.
humbly patient or quiet in nature, as under provocation from others.
overly submissive or compliant; spiritless; tame.
Obsolete. gentle; kind.

My thought on “the meek shall inherit the Earth” is that it pertains to the 1,000 year reign of Christ. Those who submit their life and will to God, will rule the Earth with Christ during that 1,000 years.

Pertaining to verse six, God does not deny his children physical food. Spiritual food is even more important than physical food. God will not deny his children spiritual food either. It pleases him when we hunger and thirst for righteousness, and it pleases him to meet that need.
