To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith, with power;
B. W. Johnson says, "The idea is, Perfect in you the love of goodness and the work of faith" (252). Paul wants the believers to live in such a way that God could mightily accomplish in them all the goodness humanly possible as divine strength was provided and that they would accomplish all the good that faith could effect through them.
