God's will is that His children stand out from the rest of the world with their pure and holy lives. But how do they to stand out specifically?

When Paul prayed for the Philippians what did He ask God to do? Interestingly, he didn't pray about all the things we usually pray about - safety, protection, healing, prosperity. Instead, he focused exclusively on the spiritual growth of the saints in Philippi - their love, knowledge, discernment, sincerity, blamelessness, and fruit. I think we would be wise to do the same.
