In Philippians 1:3-8, Paul displays his vibrant communion with Christ, and his personal love for the Philippian community, which results in his “alien like joy.” Though Paul doesn’t mention “joy” in each of the following verses, the tone is one of joy. The phrase in verse 4 “with joy” strikes the chord that runs through the passage. Paul is brimming with joy in thankfulness to God, and in love of the Philippians. To know the joy that Paul possessed, we need we too need to know the joy of (1) prayer, (2) partnership, (3) anticipation, and (4) affection. Let’s learn from Paul here.
