A King With A Kingdom

And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Ephesians 1:22-23 ESV

All the glory of heaven and earth, both realms are entirely devoted to Jesus, the head of the Church.

A gift given by the Father to the Son, dominion in both the upper and lower world. But also, such a “head” is most certainly a gift to the body!

Not a thing stands beyond the reach of his power or knowledge, and he has been given to us.

The Church, the body of Christ, is here described as the “fullness of him who fills all in all.”

He is our fullness, supplying strength where we are weak, even so much as making us stronger in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:10).

He is a king with a kingdom, as we find our completion in him, so the Father has graciously used us to complete Christ’s headship.

We are ransomed to this his domain of light to his honor and glory (Colossians 1:13) as he rules and reigns.

Understand today that we serve the literal King of kings! No matter the height to which man may ascend, there is only one head, and that is Christ.

Remember who the head of your life is today.
