Claim Your Inheritance – Matthew 5:5
March 10, 2024
Hello Kingdom Family,
Welcome to our Jesus-centered community. We are glad you are listening to today’s message.
Our purpose statement is “We are People Helping People Experience a Jesus-centered Life.”
This eight-week series examines the most famous ever given, The Sermon on the Mount, by none other than Jesus himself. Jesus’s audience was the outcasts of his day, and they were the first to engage this incredible message and design for living. We will unpack the nine Beatitudes presented by Jesus. It’s a series you don’t want to miss. Today, we unpack Matthew 5:5 and look at the first Beatitude and what it means to be humble and inherit the land.
Questions to ponder:
- What does it mean to be “humble.”
- How would you describe what it means to be humble, experience humility, or, if you wish, meekness?”
- What does it mean to be humble from a Biblical perspective?
- How is it possible to be humble and yet wait on an inheritance?
- How do we experience the promise of an inheritance living in America in the 21st century? Is that even possible?

Thank you for joining us today. Today is the final message in our series titled “Summer Lectionary Series.” Our message today is titled “Kingdom Equality.” Pastor Harold unpacks the difficult passage Matthew 20:1-16, which is one of the least favorite parables. In today’s message, we learn the difference between “world equality” and “kingdom equality.” Be prepared to be convicted and inspired to detach from the world system and commit to living the kingdom life.
