Volume 1 Post/Email 8 – Philippians 4:13
Today will be the completion of spiritual thoughts and food from Philippians. Hopefully these first 8 mini-messages have been a blessing and encouragement to us all. Our next mini-series of thoughts for the weeks to follow will be on the topics of spiritual renewal and spiritual formation, beginning with some spiritual principles taught in Jeremiah 17, followed by a message on some spiritual concepts from Jeremiah 18.
Philippians 4:13 is perhaps the most well-known verse in the 4 chapters of the letter. Here Paul writes, “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.”
What an incredible statement of faith and truth!
What do you need strength for today?
What do you need help doing this week?
You can forgive all wrongs through Christ who gives you strength!
You can make that tough decision through Christ who gives you strength!
You can love that difficult person through Christ who gives you strength!
You can grieve without being hopeless through Christ who gives you strength!
You can do without through Christ who gives you strength!
You can overcome that addiction through Christ who gives you strength!
You can raise your children through Christ who gives you strength!
You can handle rejection through Christ who gives you strength!
You can rise above the petty through Christ who gives you strength!
You can serve others through Christ who gives you strength!
“I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.” - Philippians 4:12-13
Every day let God use you! Today let God use you! Today let Christ strengthen you!
