THE MEEK WILL INHERIT THE EARTH ?

JESUS SAID:

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Mat.5:5

And has made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. Rev. 5:10

Question:

How can the meek inherit the earth?

The answer is here: Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts- Zechariah 4:6

Zechariah 4:1-6

1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a MAN that is wakened out of his sleep.

2 And said unto me, What seest thou?

And I said, I have looked, and

behold (1) a candlestick all of gold

with (2) a bowl upon the top of it,

and (3) his seven lamps thereon,

and (4)seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:

3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

Interpreting the above Scriptures:

1 Candlestick is the Church(Rev.1:19)of the LORD- His body;

2 with a bowl upon the top of it: -the bowl is for storing and conserving the oil produced by the two olive trees to the Candlestick-that is for the anointed Church of the LORD;

3 and his seven lamps thereon:-the seven lamps are the seven Spirits of God-Rev.4:v.5;

4 and seven pipes to the seven lamps which are upon the top thereof: the 7 lamps -7 spirits of GOD- are placed on the top of the pipes to enlighten the Church of the LORD mainly in this time of Apocalypse -the END of the times and establishment of GOD's Kingdom Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts, and confirmed by Mat.5:5 combined with Revelation 5:10, among other biblical references.

4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these my lord?

5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No my lord.

6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying,This is the Word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts.
