But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
All Commentaries on Philippians 4:19 Go To Philippians 4
John Chrysostom
AD 407
They were artisans and paupers. They had wives, reared children and owned houses. They had given these gifts freely from their small means. There was nothing absurd in praying that such people so situated should have sufficiency and plenty. He does not ask God to make them rich or affluent. He asks only that God may “supply their every need”—so they will not be in want but will have what they need. .
