'Desire' in the Bible
beloved, concerning all things I desire thee to prosper, and to be in health, even as thy soul doth prosper,
I sent a letter to the church, but Diotrephes, whose desire is ever to have the first place among them, will not have us there.
For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.
