So we're going to jump in, Philippians chapter 4, verse number one. This is the last installment of this series.

Let's go straight to the scriptures. Worship team. Right there in their chats, go crazy for the

worship team. Killing the new song, gardens, graves in the, yeah, whatever it was fantastic.

Shout out to Elevation Worship. We love you guys. And the new album is fantastic. We love your

worship team. Thank you so much.

Philippians 4 verse 1, therefore, this is the new living translation.

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stay true to the Lord.

I love you and long to see you, dear friends, for you are my joy and the crown I receive for my work. I like that because what Paul's

writing, he's ending. Remember, when you get a letter, there's only two parts that are important.

The beginning and the end. He is in the end of this letter. And he's saying, guys, I need you to

stay the course. Stay true to God. I know there's a lot need you to stay the course stay true to God I know

there's a lot of things going on but stay true to the Lord you are my crown of

all of my ministry I when I read this I think about you know like homecoming

ceremonies when they crown the king and the queen he's saying the crown i have for the

ministry i did in your city is that you are faithful you are happy you are rejoicing in other words

your fruit will tell on you how good of a job you did that's why mother's day we honor you

look at the job you did with your children.

Your children are happy. They're smiling. Some of them are even bathed. Praise the Lord.

And so the result, he said, you're my crown jewel in ministry. And then he's going to write to them in this chapter four confessions that he wants

them to make. Four things he wants them to walk in. And can I be honest, Zoe? The reason why I think

God is talking to us this weekend about these four things is because there is still another layer

and another level of faith that we need to step into. And so these aren't just confessions for people in the city called Philippi.
