Philippians 4:13
“I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.”
«Todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece» es el testimonio de Pablo de que, con la ayuda de Cristo, puede soportar cualquier circunstancia: abundancia o necesidad. Se trata de fuerza para contentarse y ser fiel, no de una garantía de éxito ilimitado.

Read in context, the “all things” is defined by the verses just before it: Paul has “learned the secret” of being content whether well-fed or hungry, rich or poor. The “all” is every situation, not every ambition.
The power is borrowed, not self-generated — “through Christ who strengthens me.” Paul’s point is that dependence on Christ, not personal grit, is what carries a person through extremes without losing their footing.
Does Philippians 4:13 mean I’ll succeed at anything I try?
No. Paul is talking about strength to be content and faithful in any circumstance, not a promise of winning every goal or competition.
What is “the secret” Paul learned?
Contentment that doesn’t depend on circumstances, because his security rests in Christ rather than in having much or little.
