Episode Synopsis



Study The Word
Philippians 1:9 – 11 KJV
And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;  10 That you may approve things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;  11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

ἀγάπη  agapē  love – affectionate & humble, patient & kind, giving & forgiving, eternal – unchanging & unending, unconditional & reliable active benevolent love of God; Benevolence of God.

 Philippians 1:9 – 11 AMP
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound more and more [displaying itself in greater depth] in real knowledge and in practical insight,  10 so that you may learn to recognize and treasure what is excellent [identifying the best, and distinguishing moral differences], and that you may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ [actually living lives that lead others away from sin];  11  filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God [so that His glory may be both revealed and recognized].

περισσεύω  perisseuō  abound – exceed a number of measure, over and above, exist in abundance, superabound in quantity or quality, be in excess, be superfluous.


Philippians 1:9 – 11 NET

9 And I pray this, that your love may abound even more and more in knowledge and every kind of insight  10 so that you can decide what is best, and thus be sincere and blameless for the day of Christ,  11 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God.

ἐπίγνωσις  epignōsis  knowledge – precise, exact and full knowledge; full insight of spiritual and physical things; complete knowledge of things visible and invisible

Philippians 1:9 – 11 TPT
9 I continue to pray for your love to grow and increase beyond measure, bringing you into the rich revelation of spiritual insight in all things.  10 This will enable you to choose the most excellent way of all—becoming pure and without offense until the unveiling of Christ. 11 And you will be filled completely with the fruits of righteousness that are found in Jesus, the Anointed One—bringing great praise and glory to God!

δοκιμάζω  dokimazō  approve – test, examine, prove, scrutinise for genuity.

Philippians 1:9 – 11 MSG
So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover’s life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God.

αἴσθησις  aisthēsis  judgement – spiritual perception, cognition, discernment

Pray The Word
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your eternal love with which You love me. Thank You for shedd...
