Php 4:9-12  "What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me--practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you. 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.  Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. 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." 

I have taught you what it is to walk with Christ. You heard the things I have said. You received me and embraced my teachings. You watched me demonstrate what I was talking about. If you follow my lead in walking with Christ, God's peace will be with you. I am  filled with joy that you saw my need, heard of my predicament and followed through by sharing with me from what God has given you. I am not saying the gift of money is what I am so happy about, I am happy because it shows your trust in God and His heart of Love. 
I was content in my situation, I have learned to find my contentment in Christ, His love and presence with me is my joy in any circumstance. I can go through anything, because I rely on His power and strength to give me the strength to endure.

Php 4:13  "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." 

All your gifts are appreciated and I thank you. I am well supplied now.

Php 4:14-18 "Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble. And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again.  Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit. I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. "

Everything that you need I know God will also supply to you. He has wealth beyond measure. His Son is gloriously rich in mercy, grace and love. He owns and controls all things. He is Yahweh. 

Php 4:19  "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." 

In the end, now and forever, God will be given the glory. Greet each other warmly, Everyone here sends their warmest greeting. Especially those who are a part of Caesars family. May your spirit be filled with the grace that flows from the heart of Jesus Christ. He is Absolute Love.  

Php 4:20-23  "To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.  Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.  All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar's household.  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit."
