Philippians 4:11

Read in context

Philippians 4:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 Whatever 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.

10 Now 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.

11 I am not saying this out of need, for I have learned to be content regardless of my circumstances.

12 I 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.

13 I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
