The Secret of True Contentment: HIM

Sunday, July 9, 2023
Pastor Alex Chen

Weekly Bulletin | Worship Lyrics

Philippians 4:10-13

 

Outline

o   The “one another’s” being done is a very joyful thing (10)

o   Having enough has nothing to do with how much we have (11-12)

o   True contentment comes from knowing Who holds us (13)

 

 

The “one another’s” being done is a very joyful thing

·       v.10 -- 10 I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

·       Phil 1:3,5  -- I thank my God in all my remembrance of you… making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

 

Having enough has nothing to do with how much we have

·       v.11-12 -- 11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. 12 I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need.

 

True contentment comes from knowing Who holds us

·       v.13 -- 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
