For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand.

As a committed person, the Apostle Paul has his own ambition. This is clearly written is his letter to the Philippians: “Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.”
Without thinking of what he might suffer or hardship he would face, Paul has a unflinching determination to make his life a vessel to magnify Jesus. Without giving up, he stands firm in his decision in spite of dangers, pain, prison, and even his own life (2 Cor. 11:23-28).
Most of us have no idea how Jesus can be magnified through our life. We might think that it can be possible when we are tortured for keeping our faith. Actually, it’s not like that.
Our hands magnify the Lord through our letters that console others. Our feet magnify Him when we help others doing their chores. Our voices magnify Him as we testify about Him and worship Him. Our hearts magnify Him as we pray and love Christ the Redeemer. Our ears magnify Him as we listen to His Words gratefully. If we know Jesus, we can magnify Him in our daily life.
You are uniquely created to magnify God, as if only you can do it.

Apakah Anda rindu menerima Yesus sebagai Tuhan dan Juruslamat pribadi dalam hidup Anda?
Ikuti doa ini sekarang:
“Tuhan, saya mengakui bahwa saya orang berdosa. Saya membutuhkan Engkau. Saya percaya bahwa darahMu sanggup menghapuskan segala dosa dan kesalahanku. Saat ini, saya mengundang Engkau, Yesus Kristus, masuk dalam hati dan hidupku menjadi Tuhan dan Juruslamatku. Saya menyerahkan hidupku bagiMu dan melayaniMu.
Dalam nama Yesus aku berdoa. Amin”
