In 2 Thessalonians 3:1-3, Paul urges us to pray for the rapid spread of the Lord's message and for it to be honored as it was among early believers. He requests deliverance from wicked and evil men, reminding us that not everyone has faith. Paul assures us of God's faithfulness, promising strength and protection from the evil one. In light of these requests, consider praying for missionaries you know and for the same goals Paul emphasized: the swift spread of the gospel, its reception, and safety from adversaries.
