There are graces.
This is an enablement to do something.
Human behaviour can attract grace and remove grace.
The opposite of grace is a curse.
A curse is an empowerment to fail.
Things that can bring grace are humility and obedience to God.
Things that bring curses are pride and sin, etc.

The bible says that the meek shall inherit the earth.
These are people who have power but are not abusing their power. These are called meek people.
They are kind, they are not arrogant.
On the outside they may not show that they are powerful.
If you give them feedback, they can listen.

Jesus, Moses, Joseph, Daniel, David displayed meekness.
A proud person will attract unnecessary battles.
A meek person will have some battles but not as much.
God makes his enemies at peace with him, such a person whose ways please God.
A proud person will not listen or take feedback. This will be his downfall
A meek person might already know what you are saying, but might listen. Or correct you in humility.
Some people get curses on their lives by insulting an elder or a lecturer.
Some lecturers just love some students because the student makes them feel respected.
God loves the person who submits to him and bows himself to the earth to listen to God.
God’s heart is moved to help him.

When you are meek, some people will not see you so much as a threat.
They might say, “oh that guy is good but he does not insult me”
This does not mean that people will not seek your down fall. But it means that many people will run to help you when you are facing battles because you helped them before.
Even if all their hearts are turned away from you, God will fight for you because you made yourself low in front of God. He sees you as meek and not proud.
Saul was proud and disobedient, David was humble.

You will learn fast in class if in your heart you see your teacher as someone you can learn from.
But if you think you have all knowledge and no one can teach you, it is hard to learn.
Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.
If a proud person gets to the top, he will be brought low.
Even if his close friends and counsellors see danger coming with full force, the pride of such a person will force him not to listen and take correction. And he will be destroyed.
Joseph was favoured by his masters because he was meek.
He knows his boundary.
Even if he knows he can sleep with his master’s wife, he refused to do that.
He remained meek and listened to God’s instructions.
Pride blocks one’s eyes and ears.
May God help us and give us grace.
