MULTIPLE GREAT SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE OF A SATISFIED AND CONTENTED CHRISTIAN IN CHRIST JESUS.
( Philippians 4:7-19 ) 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
8 Finally,
brethren, 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, think on these things.
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.
10 But I
rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath
flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not
that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,
therewith to be content.
12 I know
both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things
I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer
need.
13 I can
do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
14
Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
15 Now ye
Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed
from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and
receiving, but ye only.
16 For
even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
17 Not
because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 But I
have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things
which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable,
wellpleasing to God.
19 But my
God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ
Jesus.
* INTRODUCTION:
* God teach His dear children to
learn in Christian before He will bless their life with bountiful blessings.
( Proverbs 28:20 ) 20 A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but
he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.
a. The lesson God want us to learn is
to contentment in our Christian life.
b. This is always the big problem to
many Christians to be content in what God gave to them and remain faithful and
thankful to the Lord.
( Thessalonians 5:18 ) 18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will
of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
( Philippians 4:9-11 ) 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.
10 But I
rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath
flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not
that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,
therewith to be content.
1. PEACE OF GOD IS SURE TO EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4:7 ) 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
2. POSITIVE SPIRITUAL SPIRIT EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4:8 ) 8 Finally, brethren, 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, think on these things.
3. PROMISE OF STRENGTH FROM THE LORD
EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4:13 ) 13 I can do all things through Christ which
strengtheneth me.
4. PROVISION FROM THE LORD EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4:15-16 ) 15 Now ye Philippians know also,
that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church
communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
16 For
even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
5. PARTNERS OF CHANNEL OF BLESSINGS
GOD PUT IN OUR MINISTRY EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4: 18-19 ) 18 But I have all, and abound: I
am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you,
an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
19 But my
God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ
Jesus.
6. PROMISE OF BOUNTIFUL GRACE TO OUR
MINISTRY EXPERIENCE.
( Philippians 4:23 )
23 The
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
* God bless you all always *
