In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes the importance of pressing forward and finishing well in the Christian faith. He uses the analogy of a race where runners carried torches, and the goal was to be the first one across the finish line with a burning torch. The speaker warns against having a complacent attitude and encourages believers to strive to finish with their torches burning bright. He also discusses the mutual obligations between the people, the Lord, and the king, highlighting the need for the king to be revealed and crowned, as well as the importance of the king's son coming with the word of God. The sermon concludes with a discussion on managing and directing resources for the work of God.

F.B. Meyer emphasizes the need for Jesus to be fully enthroned in our lives, drawing parallels from the story of Joash, who was hidden away while a usurper ruled. He highlights that many believers, like the Temple during Joash's early years, may have Jesus present but limit His power to a small part of their being. Meyer calls for a complete anointing and surrender to allow Christ to reign over every aspect of our lives—spirit, soul, and body. He stresses that true holiness comes from the indwelling of the Holy One, and we must remove any barriers that restrict His influence. The sermon encourages believers to let go of limitations and fully embrace the transformative power of Christ.
