Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church from the book of Matthew: 

Matthew 5:5

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
(King James Version)

You’re blessed when you’re content with just who you are—no more, no less. That’s the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can’t be bought.
(Message)

How blessed are those who are humble, because it is they who will inherit the earth!
(International Standard Version)

What blessing comes to you when gentleness lives in you! For you will inherit the earth.
(The Passion)

This is the word of the Lord.         Thanks be to God
