Christ Magnified

Php 1:20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
KJV

1)Php 1:20 conforme a mi anhelo y esperanza de que en nada seré avergonzado, sino que con toda confianza, aun ahora, como siempre, Cristo será exaltado en mi cuerpo, ya sea por vida o por muerte. NBLH 2)Php 1:20 selon ma ferme attente et mon espérance que je n’aurai honte de rien, mais que, maintenant comme toujours, Christ sera glorifié dans mon corps avec une pleine assurance, soit par ma vie, soit par ma mort; FLS 3)Php 1:20 Volgens mijn ernstige verwachting en hoop, dat ik in geen zaak zal beschaamd worden; maar dat in alle vrijmoedigheid, gelijk te allen tijd, alzo ook nu, Christus zal groot gemaakt worden in mijn lichaam, hetzij door het leven, hetzij door den dood. DSV

Php 1:20 I am full of hope and feel sure I will not have any reason to be ashamed.
I am certain I will continue to have the same boldness to speak freely that I always have.
I will let God use my life to bring more honor to Christ.
It doesn’t matter whether I live or die.
ERV

AMEN!

Make God’s will known to the principalities

Eph 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, (KJV)

Eph 3:10 He did this so that now, through the church, the wisdom of God in all its variety might be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realm (ISV)

1)Eph 3:10 De este modo, la infinita (multiforme) sabiduría de Dios puede ser dada a conocer ahora por medio de la iglesia a los principados y potestades en los lugares celestiales, NBLH 2)Eph 3:10 afin que les dominations et les autorités dans les lieux célestes connaissent aujourd’hui par l’Église la sagesse infiniment variée de Dieu, FLS 3)Eph 3:10 Opdat nu, door de Gemeente, bekend gemaakt worde aan de overheden en de machten in den hemel de veelvuldige wijsheid Gods; DSV

Let’s go deep.

The Lord God wants us to make his will known unto the heavenly host.
His will that is so varied and of such a diverse nature. 4)Rom 11:33 O how deep are God’s riches, and wisdom, and knowledge! How unfathomable are his decisions and unexplainable are his ways! (ISV)
So we, the disparate members of the body of Christ (The Church)
Who do have a connection to God through The Spirit Of Jesus.
And who do “hear” and thus know the will of God.
We Must proclaim it
to the principalities and powers,
to the rulers and authorities,
in heavenly places. The Angels. 5)1Pe 1:12 It was made clear to them that their service was not for themselves. They were serving you when they told about the things you have now heard. You heard them from those who told you the Good News with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even the angels would like very much to know more about these things you were told. ERV
That is the intent of God.
That the weak, lead the strong. 6)1Co 1:27 But God chose what is nonsense in the world to make the wise feel ashamed. God chose what is weak in the world to make the strong feel ashamed. ISV
That the Church take authority over the Powers of this world. 7)Gen 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. KJV

Chosen By Jesus.

Joh 15:16 You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you. I have appointed you to go and produce fruit that will last, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
ISV

1)Joh 15:16 “Ustedes no me escogieron a Mí, sino que Yo los escogí a ustedes, y los designé para que vayan y den fruto, y que su fruto permanezca; para que todo lo que pidan al Padre en Mi nombre se lo conceda. NBLH 2)Joh 15:16 Ce n’est pas vous qui m’avez choisi; mais moi, je vous ai choisis, et je vous ai établis, afin que vous alliez, et que vous portiez du fruit, et que votre fruit demeure, afin que ce que vous demanderez au Père en mon nom, il vous le donne. FLS 3)Joh 15:16 Gij hebt Mij niet uitverkoren, maar Ik heb u uitverkoren, en Ik heb u gesteld, dat gij zoudt heengaan en vrucht dragen, en dat uw vrucht blijve; opdat, zo wat gij van den Vader begeren zult in Mijn Naam, Hij u dat geve. DSV

When you are chosen, appointed and anointed by Jesus.
You do not have one skill, or one gift.
Find out what God’s purpose is at every moment.
Ask to be used for whatever his will is at any given time.
Ask according to his will and in Jesus’ name.
And God will give it to you. God will work through you.
