Paul’s desire was that others would see Christ through his life, whether living or dying. What about you? Is exalting God your goal and motivation? How would you live today if it were? Would your relationship with God change? Would you treat people differently? Would you spend more time with family, or do your job differently? Who will you exalt today, yourself or God?
I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.—Philippians 1:20
Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for transforming my heart, head, hands and habits so that, like Paul, I can exalt You through my life. Infuse me with humility, confidence, and courage that are born out of a vibrant relationship with You. Let others see Your work in me and take hope that You can do the same for them. In Your name I pray, Amen.
