God Will Fill Your Needs

10But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last ayou have revived thinking about me; indeed, you were thinking about me before, but you lacked opportunity.

11Not that I speak 1from want, for I learned to be 2acontent in whatever circumstances I am.

12I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in abundance; in any and all things I have learned the secret of being filled and going ahungry, both of having abundance and bsuffering need.

13I can do all things 1through Him who astrengthens me.

14Nevertheless, you have done well to afellowship with me in my affliction.

15And you yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the 1afirst preaching of the gospel, after I left bMacedonia, no church cfellowshipped with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone.

16For even in aThessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs.

17aNot that I seek the gift itself, but I seek the fruit which increases to your account.

18But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I have been filled, having received from aEpaphroditus 1what you have sent, 2ba fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.

19And amy God will fulfill 1all your needs according to His briches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Read in Logos
Philippians 4:11: Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.
