Currently, my favourite verse is Philippians 4:13...
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
But, as I was reading through the whole chapter this morning, along with the notes at the bottom (my new Life Application Study Bible... I totally recommend it!) I decided that I don't have a favourite verse anymore - I have a favourite CHAPTER!!!!
Look at the verses that are in this chapter... they are powerhouse!!
verse 4 REJOICE in the Lord always, and gain I say, REJOICE!
verse 6 Be careful (or anxious) for nothing: but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
verse 7 And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep you hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
verse 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
verse 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
verse 19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
verse 20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever Amen.
Then just when you think he is done, Paul sends a final greeting to his friends - and remember... Paul is in PRISON when he writes this. He is rejoicing in Jesus from behind bars. Wow!
verse 23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
