Pray for increase in God's love

This Week’s Seremon: 1 Thessalonians 3:11-13 NLT

How do you pray for the increase of God's love?

May God himself, our Father, and our Lord Jesus make it
possible for us to come to you very soon. And may the
Lord make your love grow and overflow to each other and
to everyone else, just as our love overflows toward you.
As a result, Christ will make your hearts strong,
blameless, and holy when you stand before God our Father
on that day when our Lord Jesus comes with all those who
belong to him.
1 Thessalonians 3:11-13 NLT

When Paul wrote to the Thessalonians, his love and
concern for them were apparent in every word. When he
prayed for them, he asked the Lord to make their love
for one another overflow. Paul prayed that the
Thessalonians church might become a loving, supporting
community of faith. The strong, silent, loner Christian
didn't fit into Paul's understanding of how
God works among his people.

Each of us needs each other. God uses other believers
to strengthen us and make us holy. As you pray for
strength to be faithful to God, you should expect his
answer to come through those believers who worship every
Sunday with you. Likewise, you should earnestly pray
that God might use you to strengthen other believers.

Prayer:

O God, help my love to grow and overflow to other
believers?
