Thankfulness and Prayer

3 ^aI thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4 always in ^aevery prayer of mine making request for you all with joy,

5 ^afor your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,

6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun ^aa good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

7 just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace.

Philippians 1:4

With joy - After the epistle to the Ephesians, wherein love reigns, follows this, wherein there is perpetual mention of joy. "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy." And joy peculiarly enlivens prayer. The sum of the whole epistle is, I rejoice. Rejoice ye.
