Now may the God of peace--
who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus,
the great Shepherd of the sheep,
        and ratified an eternal covenant with his blood--may he equip you with all you need
        for doing his will.
        May he produce in you,
        through the power of Jesus Christ,
every good thing that is pleasing to him.
        All glory to him forever and ever! Amen.
Insight
This verse includes two significant results of Christ's death and resurrection. God works in us to make us the kind of people that would please him, and he equips us to do the kind of work that would please him.
Challenge
Let God change you from within and then use you to help others.
