THE FIVE THINGS PAUL KNEW HE WOULD CONTINUE TO BE CONFIDENT – A SINGLE MIND (PHIL 1:6,14,20,25) HE WOULD HAVE A GOOD CONFESSION – A SUBMITTED ATTITUDE (PHIL. 2:10,11) HE WOULD CONTINUE TO CARE FOR PEOPLE – A SERVANT HEART (PHIL 2:7) HE WOULD CONTINUE TO COMPLETE HIS CALLING (PHIL 3:13,14) – THIS MORNING “THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY” – A SPIRITUAL MIND (The Right Perspective) HE WOULD BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING (WORRY) AND WOULD BE CONTENT NO MATTER WHAT (PHIL 4:12) – A SECURE MIND
