  1. From Philippi We Learn… • NOT to wait on others Philippians 4:15-16 You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone;16. for even in Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs.

  2. From Philippi We Learn… • NOT to wait on others • That once is not enough Philippians 4:16 for even in Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs.

  3. Philippians 4:10; 1:4-5 • But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you lacked opportunity. • …always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all, 5. in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now.

  4. From Philippi We Learn… • NOT to wait on others • That once is not enough • That this was a praying church

  5. 1 Peter 3:10-12 • For, "THE ONE WHO DESIRES LIFE, TO LOVE AND SEE GOOD DAYS, MUST KEEP HIS TONGUE FROM EVIL AND HIS LIPS FROM SPEAKING DECEIT.11. "HE MUST TURN AWAY FROM EVIL AND DO GOOD; HE MUST SEEK PEACE AND PURSUE IT.12. "FOR THE EYES OF THE LORD ARE TOWARD THE RIGHTEOUS, AND HIS EARS ATTEND TO THEIR PRAYER, BUT THE FACE OF THE LORD IS AGAINST THOSE WHO DO EVIL."

  6. Matthew 7:7-8 • "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8. "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

  7. From Philippi We Learn… • NOT to wait on others • That once is not enough • That this was a praying church • That even good churches have opposition Maybe external persecution Maybe brethren shipwrecked Whether inside or out, mental or real There WAS cause for alarm It COULD divide them (or us)

  8. From Philippi We Learn… • NOT to wait on others • That once is not enough • That this was a praying church • That even good churches have opposition • A building is only as good as its foundation

  9. 1 Corinthians 3:12-13 Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13. each man's work will become evident…

  10. God has given us a pattern to guide us… By His word, Teachers, The church. ARE YOU LIVING BY HIS STANDARD? Philippians 3:15-16 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that also to you;16. however, let us keep living by that same standard to which we have attained.
