Deuteronomy 11:22-25
For if you will be careful to do all this commandment that I command you to do, loving the Lord your God, walking in all his ways, and holding fast to him, 23 then the Lord will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and mightier than you. 24 Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours. Your territory shall be from the wilderness to the Lebanon and from the River, the river Euphrates, to the western sea. 25 No one shall be able to stand against you.
The Christian faith is one of world conquest. It is one of spreading the glory of God to every square inch in every crook and cranny of God's green earth. Every place under which the soles of our feet tread shall one day be ours.
Matthew 5:5
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
It is not arrogant or proud to assert this. This is what God said would happen. It is not in our strength or because of our cunning that the world becomes ours. The deed to the planet has only ever had one name on it: Jesus. No one, earthly speaking, can possess any of it without God giving it to them. It's not up for the taking.
But in Christ, God has provided marching orders for His people to spread His Name and the worship of His divinity to any and every where we can go.
In this mission, no one can stand against us. It is indomitable. It will happen. The earth will be given over to those whose strength is under God's control (meekness).
