"so
that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him,
according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ."
Two people
will be glorified: Jesus in us and we in Jesus.
When we
live for God's glory we are also living for our glory.
When I live
for my glory, it dishonors God and brings destruction to myself.

"For
this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will
believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe
the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness."
It's God's
way or our way. And we don't want our way in reality because we know how to
choose only evil way like Adam choosing the knowledge of bad by eating the
fruit.

"and
that we will be rescued from perverse and evil men; for not all have
faith."
There are
people like this. If Paul sought prayer from others to be rescued from such
people, we would be a fool to be ignorant of the schemes of man.
