Exhortation to Pray for the Success of Paul’s Mission

2  Be devoted to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving. 3  At the same time pray for us too, that God may open a door for the message so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4  Pray that I may make it known as I should. 5  Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunities. 6  Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.
