Hey, thanks for joining us today on Pastor Rick's Daily Hope, the Bible teaching ministry of Rick Warren.

And today, we're continuing our series called The Habits of Happiness.

In this series, Rick dives into the book of Philippians and helps you discover God's path to true and lasting happiness. I can't wait for today's message.

Here is part one of a message called God's Promise to the Generous. Today, we wrap up the series

by looking at the last habit in the last passage, or the last few verses of this incredible book.

Now, Paul ends this little book with the greatest promise ever given in the Bible.

Without a doubt, Philippians 419 is the greatest promise God gives to you and to me.

And the reason I say it's the great is because it's so inclusive.

It's so expansive.

It's so including and encompassing every other promise of the Bible.

Philippians 419 says this.

You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need, his generosity

exceeding yours in the glory that pours from Jesus. You can be sure that God will take care of

everything you need, his generosity exceeding yours in the glory

that pours out from Jesus.

Now, that word, first it says, you can be sure.

In other words, this is not a hope, this is not a wish, this is of the might, this is not

I really like this, this is a certainty.

God guarantees this. God says, I guarantee that I will take care

of everything you need, my generosity exceeding yours. I'll take care of everything you need. I had to go

look up that word everything. It's a little word in the Greek.

It's the word P-A-S in Greek.
