Blessed: Part 4 | Pastor Jacob Sheriff

This sermon explores the Beatitude "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth," defining meekness as power under God's control rather than weakness or dominance. It contrasts worldly strategies of self-assertion and control with Jesus' example of humble surrender that leads to true rest. The message challenges cultural values of power, approval, and acquisition, urging recognition that all we have is a gracious gift from God. Meekness avoids heavy burdens and receives inheritance as a gift instead of seizing it.
