Ephesians 6:18-24

18 With every form of prayer and request, pray at all times in the spirit; keeping alert to do this with all perseverance and praying for all the saints.  19 Do this also for me, so that when I open my mouth in public, I may be given words to make known the mystery of the Gospel,  20 for which I am a representative in chains, that I may speak about it freely, as I should.

21 Tychicus will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing: he is a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord.  22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know how we are, and he may encourage your hearts.

23 Peace be to the whole church, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  24 Grace be with all whose love for our Lord Jesus Christ is undying.
