2Thes 3:1-5    Finally, brethren, pray for us that the word of the Lord will spread rapidly and be glorified, just as it did also with you;  2  and that we will be rescued from perverse and evil men; for not all have faith. 3  But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one. 4  We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you are doing and will continue to do what we command.  5  May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.

Our Prayer:
Lord, help us to pray without ceasing.  Teach us to pray in the Spirit and with pure hearts.  Make us eager and intense in our prayer  warrioring.   We pray that our efforts will not return unto You void.  We pray now in the name of Jesus,   Amen.
