… then who are the “meek” who will “inherit the Earth”?
Matthew 5:5

When Jesus said (in the model prayer to his Father) at Matthew 6:9,10… “Let your Kingdom come, let your will take place on Earth, as it is in Heaven”…. what is God’s will for the Earth?

Does Isaiah 11:6-9, Revelation 21:3,4 (“the tent of God is with mankind”), and other passages give us a glimpse?

I think so.

This may help you -

The “reign upon the earth” comes after 1,000 years [Rev. 20:2,3,4,5,6,7], for the “saints” must be both resurrected &/or translated, glorified, & brought back to Heaven [Jhn. 14:1-4; 1 Thes. 4:17, etc] at the 2nd Advent & First Great Resurrection (Job 14:5-15), to “reign” in Heaven, for 1,000 years [Rev. 20:4,5a,6] going over the record books of the lost [1 Cor. 6:2,3; Psa. 149:1-9]. It is obvious that “1000 years” (limited, finite), is not “for ever and ever” (eternal, no end).

[A.] The “thousand years” reign “in Heaven” [Psa. 50:5; Mat. 5:3,8,10,12, 6:20, 13:30, 24:31; Mar. 10:21, 13:27; Luk. 6:23, 18:22, 23:43; Jhn. 14:2-3, 17:24; Col. 1:5; Heb. 10:34; 1 Pet. 1:4; Rev. 7:9, 14:3, 19:1; “Paradise”, Luk. 23:43; 2 Cor. 12:4; Rev. 2:7] with Christ Jesus [1 Thes. 4:16-17; Rev. 20:6] and so followed by​
[B.] The “reign on earth” [“made new”, not this sin polluted Earth, followed by 7 last plagues, massive earthquake, & sky torn apart; Exo. 20:12; Deu. 5:16 (Eph. 6:2); Job 19:26; 2 Pet. 3:13; Isa. 65:17, 66:22; Rev. 21:1] that lasts “forever and ever” [Rev. 5:10; “meek inherit earth” [“made new”, not this sin polluted Earth], Psa. 37:9,11,34; Pro. 11:31; Isa. 25:8, 65:21; Dan. 7:27; Mat. 5:5; Rev. 5:10].​

I think most people don't understand what heaven is. What does it matter where you are if you aren't happy? If you are happy, why does it matter where you are?

I would conclude that heaven isn't a place. Heaven is about being happy (and safe).

I think so.

You are reading into scripture what is not there.

The beattitudes are not a litmus test for entrance into heaven.
They are a set of blessings for the people who personify what Jesus describes.

"Meek" is the English word used....for lack of a better one. Self emotionally regulating is a better description....meaning you don't get super angry at little things and the same goes for happy or love or depressed or any of the other emotions.

Hope this helps.

op: who are 'meek' who "inherit the earth"?
Precious friend(s), with God's Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided:

God's Previous Context of:

"Prophecy/Law" {earthly} Christ And The TWELVE, gospel of the kingdom,
Israel [ TWELVE tribes ] prominent! {past/future}, the "meek who inherit the earth"

“But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves​
in the abundance of peace.” (Psalm 37:11 AV)​
“Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land forever,​
the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, that I may be Glorified.”​
(Isaiah 60:21 cp Deuteronomy 30:5; Ezekiel 36:28; Micah 4:4 et al AV)​
"Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.”​
(Matthew 5:5 AV)​
The gospel of the kingdom to the Twelve tribes of Israel, the "meek who will inherit the earth"

Rightly Divided (2 Timothy 2:15) From “Things That Differ” (online)

God's Current Context of His [ Heavenly ] "Revelation" To ONE apostle, Paul:

"Mystery/GRACE!" {Heavenly!} Risen And Glorified Christ, The Gospel Of GRACE,
Jew And Gentile "Equal!" In The ONE Body Of CHRIST, whose "citizenship is in Heaven!",
our Blessed Future hope at God's Great GRACE Departure!:

“For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before​
in The Word Of The Truth of The Gospel [ of GRACE ];” (Colossians 1:5 AV)​

“Know ye not that we shall judge angels?..." (1 Corinthians 6:3a AV)​
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we​
have a building of God, an house not made with hands, Eternal in the Heavens.​
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which​
Is From Heaven!" (2 Corinthians 5:1-2 AV)​
GRACE, Peace, Mercy, And Love! (God's Simple Will!)

Amen.
