God’s Provision
10 I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length [2 Cor. 11:9;ch. 2:30]you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity. 11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned, in whatever situation I am, to be 1 Tim. 6:6,8;[2 Cor. 9:8;Heb. 13:5]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 1 Cor. 4:11;2 Cor. 11:27hunger, abundance and 2 Cor. 11:9need.
18 I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, ch. 2:25having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, See Gen. 8:21a fragrant offering, Heb. 13:16a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. 19 And my God Ps. 23:1;2 Cor. 9:8will supply every need of yours See Rom. 2:4according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
