Philippians 4:10-20 - Support For Paul's Ministry

10 I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at the last ye are revived again to care for me in that wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity. 11 I speak not because of necessity. For I have learned in whatsoever estate I am, therewith to be content. 12 I can both cast down myself, I can also exceed. Everywhere, and in all things I am instructed, both to be full, and to be hungry: to have plenty, and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through the help of Christ, which strengtheneth me. 14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye bare part with me in my tribulation.

15 Ye of Philippi know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no congregation bare part with me as concerning giving and receiving but ye only. 16 For when I was in Thessalonica, ye sent once, and afterward again, unto my needs: 17 not that I desire gifts: but I desire abundant fruit on your part. 18 I received all, and have plenty. I was even filled after that I have received of Epaphroditus, that which came from you, an odor that smelleth sweet, a sacrifice accepted and pleasant to God. 19 My God fulfill all your needs through his glorious riches in Jesus Christ. 20 Unto God and our father be praise forever more. Amen.
