For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
This turning to salvation is deliverance that comes through the prayers of fellow believers together with the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. That supply comes from Jesus alone through His living intercession, for He now prays for believers as He prayed for His disciples on earth. His prayer is that they be kept from evil, sanctified through the truth, and be with Him in the Father's house. The Spirit was first given to set believers right, and its supply is constant to keep them right. In this way the heart can be at peace in Jesus Christ, quietly trusting His unchanging love without continual fear of losing His grace.
The supply of the Spirit inspires faithful speech. It enables God's servants to answer opposition with words that reach hearts and make clear that Christ is speaking through them. That same Spirit of Jesus Christ is to be exemplified in Christian life and conduct. This is seen in how believers speak and act, especially when teaching young people the truth.
