Philippians 1:6

1:6 For I am sure of this very thing, that the one who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.

Philippians 1:9

1:9 And I pray this, that your love may abound even more and more in knowledge and every kind of insight

Ministry as a Prisoner

1:12 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that my situation has actually turned out to advance the gospel:

1:17 The former proclaim Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, because they think they can cause trouble for me in my imprisonment.

1:26 so that what you can be proud of may increase because of me in Christ Jesus, when I come back to you.

1:29 For it has been granted to you not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for him,

2:13 for the one bringing forth in you both the desire and the effort – for the sake of his good pleasure – is God.

2:22 But you know his qualifications, that like a son working with his father, he served with me in advancing the gospel.

3:4 – though mine too are significant. If someone thinks he has good reasons to put confidence in human credentials, I have more:

3:15 Therefore let those of us who are “perfect” embrace this point of view. If you think otherwise, God will reveal to you the error of your ways.

3:20 But our citizenship is in heaven – and we also await a savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,

4:19 And my God will supply your every need according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
