PHILIPPIANS 4:13

I reflect on this verse because this verse always reminds me that if I only believe in God

there is no impossible. We can achieve the thing that we want if we put our faith in God. Also in

sports this verse is use to encourage athletes to perceiver in their game and trust God to help them.

There are many players in this world but those who became well known are those who put their

trust in God, just like Lebron James and Stephen Curry I myself believe that without God they

can’t achieve the greatness they had achieve now. For God those who are best but doesn’t honor

him will be bring down but those who are poor but put their faith in him will be lifted high.

Philippians 4:13 is incredible verse to live by. It offers encourage when there’s only

discouragement. It offers hope when all is lost. It offers peace when your life is at war. It offers

resolve when it feels like it’s time to give up. It offers new possibilities in the face of

impossibilities.

As you rest in him, he will strengthen you to endure all things, whether sorrow or joy,

poverty or wealth, suffering or health; you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

This verse holds the key to us as believers overcoming adversity Christ Jesus. This verse does not

tell us that we are superheroes able to leap tall buildings or fly through the air. What the scriptures

reflects here is Christ’s power and ability in our lives. All thing, obviously means submitting to
the will of he who is our strength and the source of all our power to achieve the incredible or even

ordinary. “All things” refers to the will of God for each and every one of us who are in Christ. This

verse does not give us license to accomplish our own selfish plans or carnal desires. All things

refers to whatever is the will of the father, he will give us the strength to carry out his will.

It represents the ultimate and ideal consciousness of the Christian. The first thing needful

is to throw off mere self-sufficiency, to know our weakness and sin, and accept the salvation of

God’s free grace in Christ; the next, to find the “Strength made perfect in weakness,” and in that

to be strong. If you have God’s love, you can do all things, for you have no other need. Even if

you’re suffering with cancer, sorrow, pain, suffering etc…, if you have the love of God, you need

nothing else, for his love is better than this life. If you’re satisfied in Christ alone, you can all

things, for whether you live or die, you still have Christ, and you’ll enjoy him forevermore!
