Exercise in the Word 12/16 Wednesday Wisdom

Philippians 1:20 gives us a beautiful illustration:  "According to my earnest expectations and hope, that in nothing shall I be put  to shame, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death."

Paul wanted Christ to be magnified in his body through the things he did and said.  He wanted Jesus to be magnified, made attractive, so that men would want Him.  This can only come as we exercise ourselves in the Word.
