whereas_o some_o perhaps_o may_v object_v and_o say_v that_o understand_v they_o can_v how_o any_o man_n faith_n repentance_n or_o religiousness_n can_v benefit_v another_o nor_o can_v they_o call_v to_o mind_n that_o ever_o they_o know_v their_o prayer_n for_o any_o else_o have_v ever_o the_o desire_a effect_n and_o event_n this_o rub_n they_o be_v teach_v to_o put_v out_o of_o their_o way_n by_o these_o five_o consideration_n 1._o it_o be_v indeed_o no_o sense_n nor_o reason_n at_o all_o that_o any_o man_n religiousness_n or_o devotion_n shall_v in_o the_o least_o benefit_n any_o beside_o himself_o no_o nor_o himself_o neither_o but_o only_o that_o god_n have_v promise_v that_o it_o shall_v here_o here_o be_v all_o the_o power_n and_o energy_n of_o prayer_n god_n have_v command_v it_o for_o other_o as_o well_o as_o for_o ourselves_o and_o in_o six_o hundred_o place_n have_v promise_v to_o be_v overcome_v by_o it_o at_o such_o time_n and_o in_o such_o way_n as_o he_o see_v most_o fit_a and_o necessary_a so_o not_o the_o prayer_n themselves_o but_o god_n promise_v that_o upon_o our_o prayer_n he_o will_v do_v so_o and_o so_o this_o be_v the_o all_o in_o all._n but_o if_o those_o six_o hundred_o promise_n be_v not_o in_o scripture_n so_o express_v yet_o the_o command_n for_o pray_v for_o other_o be_v most_o express_a it_o be_v enough_o because_o as_o every_o promise_n almost_o do_v suppose_v a_o command_n so_o also_o do_v every_o command_n imply_v a_o promise_n this_o command_n for_o instance_n for_o intercession_n that_o prevail_v it_o shall_v for_o god_n never_o command_v frivolous_a fruitless_a and_o successless_a thing_n 2._o as_o to_o the_o event_n and_o real_a effect_n of_o prayer_n the_o word_n they_o be_v teach_v inform_v we_o to_o this_o purpose_n 1._o that_o the_o creature_n be_v to_o do_v his_o duty_n and_o to_o leave_v the_o issue_n to_o god_n the_o event_n be_v god_n care_n and_o business_n not_o the_o creature_n mark_v 4.26_o 27._o so_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v cast_v seed_n into_o the_o ground_n and_o shall_v sleep_v and_o rise_v night_n and_o day_n and_o the_o seed_n shall_v spring_v and_o grow_v up_o he_o know_v not_o how_o 2._o that_o the_o event_n be_v always_o that_o which_o be_v best_a though_o not_o that_o which_o the_o votary_n do_v particular_o aim_v at_o as_o when_o saul_n seek_v for_o nothing_o but_o his_o father_n ass_n but_o meet_v we_o know_v with_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n and_o abraham_n prayer_n for_o all_o sodom_n be_v answer_v by_o the_o signal_n deliverance_n of_o his_o near_a kinsman_n lot_n for_o so_o say_v the_o text_n and_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v when_o god_n destroy_v the_o city_n of_o the_o plain_a that_o god_n remember_v abraham_n and_o send_v lot_n out_o of_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o overthrow_n when_o he_o overthrow_v the_o city_n in_o the_o which_o lot_n dwell_v gen._n 19.29_o nay_o omnibus_fw-la positis_fw-la the_o world_n be_v as_o it_o be_v and_o be_v nothing_o can_v be_v can_v be_v better_a than_o it_o be_v and_o be_v beside_o they_o that_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o his_o way_n especial_o that_o of_o pray_v for_o other_o as_o well_o as_o for_o themselves_o these_o do_v always_o find_v all_o event_n good_a unto_o they_o and_o to_o the_o universe_n one_o way_n or_o other_o for_o to_o such_o the_o lord_n who_o

event_n but_o also_o sion-blessing_n or_o such_o as_o he_o use_v to_o sanctify_v to_o his_o church_n to_o zion_n and_o all_o pray_a believer_n and_o likewise_o to_o enable_v they_o to_o be_v well_o content_v with_o they_o be_v they_o never_o so_o harsh_a and_o distasteful_a to_o flesh_n and_o blood_n yet_o still_a something_o of_o comfort_n and_o satisfaction_n do_v they_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o walk_n in_o the_o way_n of_o zion_n sin_v and_o deprehend_v in_o they_o according_a to_o that_o most_o orthodox_n and_o most_o common_a word_n of_o the_o believe_a hebrew_n when_o any_o
