Let $A=\{x\in X: \varphi(x)>0\}$ and
$A_n=\{x\in X: \varphi(x)\geq1/n\}$ (increasing)
I want to show that $A=\cup_{n=1}^{\infty} A_n$

It is clear that $A_n\subseteq A$ so
$\bigcup_{n}A_n\subseteq A$.
Let $x\in A$, then $\phi(x)>0$, so there exists a natural number $N$ such that
$\phi(x)\geq \frac{1}{N}$
Thus $x\in A_N$
