Philippians 4:19 (KJV)

19 But my God shall supply all your need

according to his riches in glory by Christ

Jesus.

THE WORD OF GOD FOR THE CHILDREN OF

GOD

VERY BRIEFLY I WANT TO REASON WITH YOU

ON THE THOUGHT

MY BROTHERS AND MY SISTERS

THE WRITER OF THE TEXT BEFORE

US IS THE APOSTLE PAUL

THE SON OF A PHARISEE WHO WAS

REARED IN TARSUS

WHO AT A YOUNG AGE LEARN THE

TRADE OF A TENT MAKER AND

STUDIED JEWISH SCRIPTURE

AT THE AGE OF 13 HE BECAME A

CHILD OF THE JEWISH LAW AND WAS

BROUGHT TO JERUSALEM

AND PLACE UNDER THE TUTORING

OF GAMALIEL WHERE HE BECAME A

BRILLIANT LAW STUDENT AND A

STUDIOUS RABBI

FOR EARLY CHURCH RECORDS

REVEALS

THAT PAUL COULD QUOTE THE 1ST 5

BOOKS OF THE MOSIAC LAW VERSE

BY VERSE

COULD EVEN SPEAK IN 14 DIFFERENT

LANGUAGES AND HAD MASTERED 7

AND WAS KNOWN AS A PHARISEE OF

THE PHARISEES

WHO WAS FULL OF ENTHUSIASM AND

ZEAL

BUT WITH ALL OF THAT EDUCATION

AND TRAINING HE STILL HAD ONE

PROBLEM

AND THAT WAS ON THE DAMASCUS

ROAD HE DID`NT KNOW WHO JESUS

WAS

BUT AIN`T IT GOOD NEWS

THAT WE SERVE A GOD WHO CAN

TAKE WHAT THE DEVIL MEANT FOR

BAD

TURN IT AROUND AND MAKE IT

WORK FOR OUR GOOD

PAUL –PAUL WRITES THIS LETTER TO

THE CHURCH AT PHILIPPI FROM THE

ROMAN COUNTY JAIL

AND HE SHARES WITH PHILIPPIANS

IN THIS 4TH CHAPTER VERSE

19 But my God shall supply all your

need according to his riches in glory

by Christ Jesus.

SOMETHING HE HAD HEARD

BUT HE SHARED WITH THEM

SOMETHING HE HAD EXPERIENCE

BECAUSE WHEN YOU LOOK AT HIS

POSTSCRIPT RESUME

PAUL HAD SUFFERED

STRIPES ABOVE MEASURE

HAD BEEN STONED AND SHIPWRECK

LABELED AS A TRAITOR

THROWN INTO A DUNGEON WITHOUT

HIS CLOAK ,SCROLL OR

PARCHMENTS

SNAKE BITTEN AND HAD A THORN IN

HIS SIDE

WHITE THAT’S THE ABASED SIDE OF

MY LIFE

BUT TELL THEM ABOUT THE ABOUND

SIDE

PAUL SAYS TELL THEM WHY I

REALLY KNOW THAT

19 my God shall supply all your need

according to his riches in glory by

Christ Jesus.

WHEN I WAS CAUGHT IN A STORM

CALL EUROCLYDON

AND GOD SENT AN ANGEL TO

REASSURE ME THAT EVERYTHING

WAS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT

WHEN ME AND SILAS WAS IN THE

CITY JAIL AT PHILIPPI

AND WHEN WE PUT PRAYER AND

PRAISE TOGETHER HOW GOD MADE

THE PHILIPPI CITY JAIL DO THE JAIL

HOUSE ROCK

DOWN THE MACEDONIAN WALL

HOW I WAS STONED BUT GOD SAVED

ME

HAD A THORN IN MY FLESH AND GOD

SATISFIED MY NEED

WITH THE IMMORTAL WORDS OF

HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT

PAUL SAYS MY GOD

THE CREATOR

THE FATHER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LIGHT

THE ONE WHO HOLDS THE KEY TO

EVERY HUMAN HEART

THE DEFENDER OF THE FAITHFUL

THE ONE WHO CONVICTS THE CONSCIENCE

INFLUENCES THE WILL

PERSUADES THE HEART

AND SAVES THE SINNER

PAUL LET`S US KNOW BY HIS OWN

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

THAT GOD IS A PROVIDER

IN OTHER WORDS

HE IS ABLE TO GIVE US

MERCY FOR OUR MISERY

STRENGHT FOR OUR WEAKNESS

FORGIVINESS FOR OUR SIN
