Philippians 4:4-13

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Philippians 4:4-13

4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
5Let your gentleness be apparent to all. The Lord is near.
6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think on these things.
9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me, put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
10Now I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.
11I am not saying this out of need, for I have learned to be content regardless of my circumstances.
12I know how to live humbly, and I know how to abound. I am accustomed to any and every situation — to being filled and being hungry, to having plenty and having need.
13I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
— Philippians 4:4-13
