Paul's Final Prayer in his Second Letter to the Thessalonians

2 Thessalonians 3:16: Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.

What do I see here? First, the emphasis on "now" and "the Lord of peace himself"--not through another, as He could have done. Then "give you peace at all times in every way"--comprehensive, and who does not yearn for peace at all times in every way? Finally, "The Lord be with you all"--all believers, not just a select few.
