God and him to answer the great End of this his Bounty to you by living to the Honour of God and your Religion particularly by a constant and devout attendance at the Prayers and Sacraments which will be performed in this Place Be very careful I beseech you to approve your selves Widows indeed that so you may be worthy of ' that Honor i. e. Relief and Maintenance as the Original Word often signifies in Scripture which the Apostle would have to be given to such in 1 Tim. 5. 3. Honor i. e. Relieve Widows that are Widows indeed And who are such he tells us v. 5 7 10. And such I hope and heartily pray All you may be She trusteth in God and continueth in Supplications and Prayers night and day She is blameless and well reported of for good Works and has diligently followed every good Work This is the sum of what your Blessed Saviour and I presume to say your pious Benefactor also expects from you viz. That you be Constant and Serious at Prayers and Sacraments That your Conversation be Blameless and of good Report particularly for Humility Gravity Sobriety Contentedness Weanedness from the World Love and Peaceableness amongst your selves and towards all Men Graces which more especially adorn your Station and that you be diligent Followers of every good Work Then shall you approve your selves Widows indeed in the Apostles Sense to the Honor of your Lord the Reputation of your Religion the great Satisfaction of your Benefactor and the mighty Encouragement of such Pious and Charitable Acts to your own great Comforts whilst you live in this World and to your eternal Happiness in the World to come Which eternal Happiness God in his due time make you and all of us Partakers of for the sake of his dear Son Iesus Christ our Saviour To whom with the Father and Blessed Spirit be ascribed all Obedience Adoration and Praise now and for evermore Amen For the Direction and Assistance of the more Ignorant let me here add 'T is very Adviseable that all Persons when they intend to partake of our publick Prayers hasten to the House of Prayer as soon as the Bell begins to call to it that so they may have some little time before Prayers begin to raise their Devotions and fix their Thoughts upon the Duties before them by considering the Weightiness of them and the Presence of God humbly and earnestly Begging his Assistance in the Performance of them which may be done by those who are not better provided in this or the like short Prayer following Let thy merciful Ears O Lord be open to the Prayers of thy humble Servants And grant that we may now and at all times ask faithfully and obtain effectually through Iesus Christ our Lord. Amen Or this Most gracious God who hast commanded us to pray without ceasing Incline my Heart to this Duty and so assist me with thy holy Spirit now and at all times in the Performance of it that I may so ask that I may receive and so hear thy Word that I may practice it and by these Opportunities for which I bless thy Name I may daily more and more improve in Righteousness and true Holiness until I come to thine everlasting Kingdom through Iesus Christ my Lord and only Saviour Amen At the Conclusion of Divine Service and before thou risest from thy Knees say to thy self this or the like short Prayer Lord in Mercy hear our Prayers and relieve all our Wants Continue unto us these means of Grace make me and all that profess thy Name to delight in them with Reverence and godly Fear to approach unto them and always to become better by them through Iesus Christ our Lord. Amen Or this Blessed be thy Name O God for this Opportunity of waiting upon thee in thine House Lord pardon the Iniquity of my holy Things and make me a partaker of the Benefit of those Prayers which have been put up unto thee at this time In Mercy continue unto me these Opportunities and fit me more and more for thy Service here and for thy Kingdom hereafter for Iesus Christ his sake Amen FINIS * Hist.
