2 Corinthians 11:7-12
Ancient teachers and philosophers who traveled around speaking were paid for their services. In fact, their payment was supposed to be in proportion to the perceived value of their teachings. Since the apostle Paul did not charge for his teaching ministry, his opponents said his teachings had no value (2 Corinthians 11:7-12).
Paul sometimes received financial support from churches where he ministered (2 Corinthians 11:8; Philippians 4:14-16), but he also worked as a tentmaker so as not to be a financial burden to anyone (Acts 18:3). Why did Paul conduct his ministry on a by-faith basis when it came to material needs? Because he had learned that in every circumstance, God was faithful to meet his needs. Whether he had plenty or little did not matter since he had learned to be content “in all things.” He had learned that the strength of Christ was sufficient in every situation (Philippians 4:13).
We also are called to live by faith (2 Corinthians 5:7). Let every moment of need be an opportunity to trust God.
