In every chapter of Philippians the themes of joy or rejoicing and striving together, sharing or being of the same mind are found.
Chapter

In
all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 18
... The important thing is that in every way ...
Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will
continue to rejoice, 25
Convinced
of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of
you for your progress and joy in the faith, 27
Whatever
happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of
Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my
absence, I will know that you stand firm in the one Spirit, striving
together as one for the faith of the gospel

2 Therefore
if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any
comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any
tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being
like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one
mind.
17,
18 But
even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice
and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of
you. So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.
28,
29 Therefore
I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again
you may be glad and I may have less anxiety. So then, welcome him in
the Lord with great joy, ....

2 I plead with
Euodia and I plead with Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.
4 Rejoice
in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me.
