Jesus is the heir of all things

Heb. 1:2 in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. Jesus is the Son of God, and therefore the heir. Everything that belongs to God, belongs to Him. The entire creation and history of the world belongs to Him for the purpose of glorifying His Father. That means every circumstance and relationship in your life is His. Abraham Kuyper, Prime Minister of the Netherlands and founder of the Dutch Reformed Church in the Netherlands said, “There is not one square inch in the whole domain of human existence as to which Christ who is sovereign over all does not cry out, ‘Mine!’ And if Jesus, looking at all of life, cries out, ‘Mine!’, the church’s task is to cry out, ‘His!’” Our lives are His. His purpose should be our purpose, and His purpose was to live to love with His Father for His glory. He came to reveal the Father, and we live to reveal Jesus. The apostle John’s conclusion about the nature of God from his 3 years with Jesus was that God is love (1 John 4:8). Our mission is to reveal to those whom God puts in our paths that God is love as we love with Jesus. Have you thought this through? Does it make sense to you? I hope so, because this is God’s plan—that the world would know that Jesus is God’s Son by the way His disciples love one another (John 13:35). As we live to love with Jesus, we are declaring Jesus to be the Son of God, and the heir of all things.
