in my difficulties
"when things became difficult"
gospel mission
This refers to when Paul would travel to different cities to tell people about Jesus.
no church had supported me in the matter of giving and receiving except you only
"you were the only church that sent me money or helped me."
I do seek the fruit that increases to your account
Paul is comparing the church's gift to a person's wealth that increases more and more. Paul wants to see the Philippians to give gifts so they can receive spiritual blessings. Alternate translation: "I do want to see God give you more and more spiritual blessings." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
