Final Exhortations Philippians 4:10-23 When we intentionally support our friends on mission, we are not only pouring gas on their missionary fire but simultaneously reviving their weary souls. — Philippians 4:10, 15-18 When we sacrificially give we can be confident that God will provide for us in proportion to His own riches and glory. — Philippians 4:19-20 Always remember God is relentlessly pursuing every person in every place, which means no one is too far from God’s grace. Philippians 4:21-23 Until I can truthfully say that Christ is enough, I’ll never be able to experience what it means to be content. - Philippians 4:11-13
This Past Sunday we continued our sermon series through the book of Philippians. In Philippians 4:4-9 Paul reminds the church at Philippi to rejoice. Paul shares both the reason why we rejoice and tells of how we are to use our entire personhood, both mind and body to rejoice. As we look at this text we ask: Who has authority to tell us what to do? How do we rejoice? And that rejoicing needs reason. V5 How Anxiety (uncertainty, agitation, dread, or fear) is met with prayer and supplication (the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.) Who forms the interior design of your mind? There is one and only one that has the ability to not only speak into the spaces of our mind but cleanse the spaces of our mind. To remove and re arrange.
