Philippians
4:10-23
God’s
Provisions
10 “But I rejoiced in THE LORD greatly,
that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were
concerned before, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak from want,
for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.
12 I know how to get along with
humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every
circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry,
both of having abundance and suffering need.
13 I can do all things through HIM
WHO strengthens me.
14 Nevertheless, you have done well
to share with me in my affliction.
15 You yourselves also know,
Philippians, that at the first preaching of THE GOSPEL, after I left Macedonia, no
church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone;
16 for even in Thessalonica you
sent a gift more than once for my needs.
17 Not that I seek the gift itself,
but I seek for the profit which increases to your account.
18 But I have received everything in
full and have an abundance; I am amply supplied, having received
from Epaphroditus what you have sent, a fragrant aroma, an
acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to GOD.
19 And MY GOD will
supply all your needs according to HIS riches in glory in CHRIST JESUS.
20 Now to our GOD and FATHER be the
glory forever and ever. Amen.
21 Greet every saint in CHRIST JESUS. The
brethren who are with me greet you.
22 All the saints greet you,
especially those of Caesar’s household.
23 THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST be with your spirit.”
