What are the steps to Satisfaction?

Chapter 1: True Fellowship
To Preach Christ and to live Christ
We Read: 1:21-25
Philippians 1:21–25 ESV
21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better. 24 But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account. 25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,
We know our living may bring suffering. Verses 27-30 reminds us of this. Lets look at it.
Chapter 2: Joy and Unity
True caring for one another, read 2:5-8
Philippians 2:5–8 ESV
5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Chapter 3: joy Killers
Philippians 3:2–8 ESV
2 Look out for the dogs, look out for the evildoers, look out for those who mutilate the flesh. 3 For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh— 4 though I myself have reason for confidence in the flesh also. If anyone else thinks he has reason for confidence in the flesh, I have more: 5 circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee; 6 as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law, blameless. 7 But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. 8 Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ
We must have the proper mind-set!

Chapter 4: The secret to Contentment, Satisfied

Be Unified, Joyful, and in Prayer vs 2-7
Proverbs 4:23 ESV
23 Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.
A. Have a common cause, Jesus
B. In The Lord
C. Rejoice
2. Meditate on these things
A. Have the same mind
B. Know why you are and why you are going.

Corey Tin Boone said, “You’ll never know that Jesus is all you need until Jesus is all you have.”

Contentment comes when we know that God IS enough.
