Meekness is Not Weakness

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

MATTHEW 11:28-30

Ponder This

Meekness is not cowardliness. The Lord Jesus said, “I am meek [gentle] and lowly of heart.” Was Jesus a coward? He was the strongest man that ever lived, and yet He said, “I’m meek and lowly of heart.” His strength was under the control of God; He lived submitted to Him. A while back, I was driving in another state, and I saw a sign that said, “If you think that meekness is weakness, try spending a week being meek.”

People say, “Oh, why doesn’t God speak?” It is not that God is not speaking; we’re not hearing. Do you want God to guide you? Do you want God to lead you? If you will get meek—if you will humble yourself with a repentant, receptive, and responsive spirit—God will guide you. You will not be like a ship at sail on a dark and stormy night without a compass, rudder, mast, or sail, being driven by the winds and the waves of this world. He will show you His way, and you will be able to hear because He can touch the bridle here, and you’ll turn this way, and He’ll touch the bridle there, and you’ll turn that way because He has mastered you and is guiding you.

  • What wrong perception have you had of meekness in the past?
  • Do you have a receptive, repentant, and responsive spirit toward God? How can you grow in this?

Practice This

Pray and ask God to show you where you need to grow in meekness.
