2 My dear friend, I pray that you may in all respects prosper and enjoy good health, just as your soul already prospers.
3 I thank my God at my every remembrance of you–
4 I thank my God continually on your behalf for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus–
45 And blessed is she who has believed, for the word spoken to her from the Lord shall be fulfilled.«
7 I have gone through the glorious contest; I have run the race; I have guarded the faith.
3 But the Lord is faithful, and He will make you stedfast and will guard you from the Evil one.
14 But to God be the thanks who in Christ ever heads our triumphal procession, and by our hands waves in every place that sweet incense, the knowledge of Him.
