Obtaining Possession Of The Earth

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

As we learned before we own the world. That's why you shouldn't be intimidated by anyone's wealth. Neither should you be envious of anyone because every single thing that's on this earth, including all the monies in the banks, the silver and gold, the crude oil, etc, belong to you! That's the truth!

But there is a difference between being an heir to something and actually taking possession of it. That's why a lot of Christians are broke; they are joint heirs with Christ, but there's nothing to show for it. There's a missing link.

Jesus said that it is the meek that will inherit the earth. Weymouth New Testament version says, "Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth." Hmm, so that's the secret! You've got to be meek. Psalm 37:7-11 says, "Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret— it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; but those who wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; indeed, you will look carefully for his place, but it shall  be no more. But the meek shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace." Amen!
