Discuss Philippians 4 Page 18

Not that I speak in respect of want for I have learned and know the state i am herewith to be content . Jesus words gives us life and peace that passes through understanding help me Jesus to understand your words I will praise you and worship you forever amen

Do what you have to do from your stand and rest in the Lord in content and not aspiring through wrong for what is not of yours and wait for that to reach you in His time through your honest efforts.

Lord Jesus please guide and control me everyday cleanse my mind my heart and my soul renew my strength everyday I love you Jesus and I will praise you Jehova Jireh Shalom amen

I find it interesting that in 4:6 the word "careful" is replaced in my bible (NKJV) with "anxious". "Anxious" explains it to me better than "careful". I didn't understand the usage of "careful" in this context.

Acts of love and kindness shown to Paul who was in chains made him pray for the Philippine church that his God shall provide all their needs Phil 4:19. There are lots of true men and women of God in the churches now in chains of sickness, financial difficulty, marital challenges etc. Let us pray for them and extend acts of charity so Phil4:19 can be our portion.

I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. I give all praise and glory to Jesus for all HE has done for me. I cannot make it without the strength that He gives me to get through the trials we go through in life. I praise Him for holding my hand and carrying me through it all.

We should think on whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise.

Phil 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Father this so speaks to me. Thank you for being there for me Lord even in the hardest times of my life, especially when I feel that I am weak. Father, right now I just ask that you give me the strength to be strong in your word and to take away the desires of my Heart and replace them with your desires. In Jesus name I pray Amen!

Verse 7

Philippians 4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. Paul wanted the Church to do the things that he did. That's why Paul said follow me.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Well said, I am retiring and will continue to believe on the Word of God forever. This is therapy for my soul, and always remember when we stand with Jesus Christ who is our Lord and Savior we are more than conquerors. "Will not fall for anything." Pray and believe on the Word, Jesus will not fail us. Amen!

1 Timothy 6:6, 6:8. Philippians 4:11,12,13 V.11 "Not that I speak in respect of want:for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." Be content in plenty and in lack.

April: To promise God---, they're already in Sin. God told us to ask: Be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be known unto God. Philippians 4:6/ this is the confidence that we have in him that if we ask anything according to his will,he heareth us: if we know that he hear us---we have the petitions that we desire of Him. 1John 5:14-15

I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
Because Christ strengthens me--I can do all things.
Everything is accomplished through Christ who strengthens me.
Fully equipped, I can do all things because of a God who is awesome in every way.
Accessible, loving, all knowing and faithful--He is with us always--and He strengthens us. Big, Powerful and Present--He loves us! Hallelujah!

Dear beloved, I'm praying in agreement with you that God will move to sort your mortgage issues out. Remember that 'the eternal God is your Refuge and underneath you are the everlasting Arms' ( Deuteronomy 33: 27) I'm sensing God saying, 'I've got this!' Come on, praiiiise the LORD!

Verse 6 jumped out at me this morning as I was reading I know that God doesn't put more us than we can bare, but I feel that sometimes He lets things happen to get our attention. I am going through a dark valley with our mortgage company. My prayer life wasn't what it should be and this verse as well as others may me wake up and say listen. God knows all and He just wants you to come and ask.

V. 7, And the peace of God that passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

A few verses before this one says : I know how to be abased and I know how to abound : I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me : I can be able to be abased when I need to and I can be able to abound when comes my way : Not with a haughty attitude ! I will learn to be content in any thing I go through . Praise God for the Victory !

I think what the writer of this book was moved by the Spirit to write is fully captured in chapter 4.
Am concentrate on vrs. 18, which shows a wealthy church, that is fully contented in all things, and shares all things in common with the saints that are in need. Lesson learned is that I should seek to trust God with my need, and be grateful always!!!

Our God is an awesome God. HE reigns from the heavens above. "Rejoice in the LORD always again I say Rejoice" Phil. 4:4. HALLELUJAH!! HE is worthy to be praised.

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me" A VERY FAMILIAR SCRIPTURE IN THE CHURCH BUT LESS USED IN LIFE! TO UNDERSTAND THIS SCRIPTURE TRY LOVING YOUR ENEMIES WITHOUT HIM! TRY FORGIVING THOSE WHO DON'T ASK FOR IT WITHOUT HIS STRENGTH! TRYING BEING MARRIED WITHOUT HIS STRENGTH! TRY HAVING PEACE IN A WORLD OF WAR WITHOUT HIM! TRY HAVING JOY WHEN THERE IS SADNESS ALL AR

V. 8 - His Word is - True, Honest, Just, Pure, Lovely, of Good report, of Virtue, Worthy of our Praise
THINK ON HIS WORD

The word is God, and also life to me. thank God for reaching us in this way!

Jesus Christ is : True ! Honest ! Just ! Lovely ! Is of Good Report ! Has Virtue that flows from Him ! Worthy of ALL Praise !!!

Jesus said to who has more shall be giving, therefore if you are joyful you get more Joy and will be able to state your case with God for answers. Being sad magnetise curses Malachi 2:2, Deut 28:47-48 rather with Joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation Isaiah 12:3. It is therefore good to know that this is a MASTER KEY FOR PRAYERS TO BE ANSWERED it is a COMMAND phil 4:4-7 Rejoice.

JESUS gives us peace that surpasses carnal knowledge and understanding. We trust God in the good times and the bad times.

God bless you

God, thank you for providing for your children. You know that my needs are simple. I do not wish for a Mcmansion, expensive clothes, jewelry, or cars. Never did, never will. I only want to have enough to live decently, to provide for those I love, to help those who are in need, and to have you, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit in my life. I love you, Heavenly Father.
