“There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, Mine!” — Abraham Kuyper
Every inch includes every inch of your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
“Have an ambition to be remembered, not as a great lawyer, doctor, merchant, scientist, manufacturer, or scholar, but as a great man, every inch a king." — Charles Sumner
No area of life is permitted to live in rebellion. Every inch is called to crucifixion and resurrection in Christ’s name.
Revelation 1:5-6
From Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Christ has called men to be kings in His name. We are to rule and reign by His grace in His place over every single inch of our lives and land.
Revelation 5:9-10
And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation, and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.”
Christlikeness is required in all things: meditation, habitation, and reputation.
Luke 2:52
Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man.
Maturity is our modus operandi.
Colossians 1:28
Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.
Push it to the corners. All of Christ for all of life. No neglected nooks or crannies. Assiduity is the aim.
Every inch a king.
