The Believer’s Heart

“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5 NIV

Matthew 5 is a step-by-step description of how God rebuilds the believer’s heart.

The first step is to ask for help to become “poor in spirit” and admit our need for a Savior.

The next step is sorrow. Those who mourn are those who know they are wrong and say they are sorry.

The next step is one of renewal: “Blessed are the meek. . .” Realization of weakness leads to the source of strength–God.
