This Scripture was from Apostle Paul and Timotheus, to the Saints of Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons (Phil. 1:1).

Prior to this verse, Apostle Paul explained how he could be content with little or with excess, that no matter what state he was in, he could be content. (Phil. 4:11-12.) So in the statement: "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me", Paul is meaning that in whichever state he's living in, he can get through it because it's *THROUGH CHRIST* that he's strengthened. 

Context:

Phil. 4:11: "Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content."

V. 12: "I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need."

V. 13: "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."

Matt. 19:26: "But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible."
