The title is taken from one of Chambers's sermons, where he says "Shut out every consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only - My Utmost for His Highest". It relies on the New King James Version of the Bible, and has become a series of Christian devotional journals, calendars, and children's books.

The copyright was renewed in 1963 by the Oswald Chambers Publications Association, Ltd. The book was first published in America by Dodd, Mead, & Co., in 1935. Chambers' widow self-published the book with Alden in Oxford circa 1924 (Lukabyo, "From a Ministry for Youth to a Ministry of Youth", 2020, p. 154). My Utmost for His Highest is a daily Christian devotional by Oswald Chambers (1874–1917) that compiles his preaching to students and soldiers.
