In 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13, Paul outlines what having a right heart for fellow believers looks like. It’s a heart of love. That love should show up in our prayers – more specifically, ‘how’ we pray for those we fellowship with. Paul’s prayer for these Thessalonian believers reveals the major passions of his own spiritual maturity: growing faith, overflowing love, steadfast holiness, and a life oriented toward the soon return of Christ.
