i_o be_o go_v to_o god_n for_o to_o set_v a_o due_a prior_n upon_o those_o mercy_n that_o i_o be_o pray_v for_o and_o to_o get_v my_o heart_n affect_v with_o they_o three_o labour_v to_o get_v your_o

than_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o main_a matter_n of_o your_o prayer_n be_v only_o for_o yourselves_o but_o how_o have_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o great_a god_n and_o the_o good_a

your_o heart_n in_o prayer_n then_o when_o you_o be_v at_o sea_n you_o will_v remember_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o church_n as_o much_o as_o yourselves_o the_o church_n be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o

for_o yourselves_o when_o you_o be_v in_o a_o storm_n at_o sea_n yea_o and_o spiritual_a thing_n shall_v be_v the_o chief_a matter_n of_o your_o prayer_n for_o they_o be_v the_o near_a to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n though_o god_n have_v his_o glory_n from_o other_o thing_n yet_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v near_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n now_o in_o these_o day_n of_o prayer_n many_o will_v come_v to_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v be_v free_v from_o danger_n that_o they_o may_v have_v outward_a peace_n this_o be_v good_a but_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v the_o chief_a thing_n and_o therefore_o the_o

can_v get_v the_o shine_n of_o his_o face_n o_o that_o i_o can_v get_v power_n over_o such_o and_o such_o corruption_n and_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v this_o that_o spiritual_a thing_n may_v be_v pray_v for_o absolute_o but_o outward_a thing_n must_v be_v pray_v for_o conditional_o i_o may_v pray_v and_o never_o put_v any_o condition_n in_o at_o all_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v pardon_v my_o

then_o restore_v i_o to_o the_o health_n of_o my_o body_n or_o the_o health_n of_o my_o husband_n or_o the_o health_n of_o my_o wife_n but_o thou_o may_v pray_v lord_n convert_v the_o soul_n of_o my_o

condition_n lord_n as_o thou_o see_v best_a for_o i_o so_o do_v thou_o deal_v with_o i_o this_o show_v the_o excellency_n that_o there_o be_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n above_o outward_a thing_n sure_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v more_o to_o be_v desire_v for_o they_o be_v to_o be_v pray_v for_o absolute_o and_o the_o other_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o only_o conditional_o that_o be_v for_o the_o first_o in_o the_o second_o place_n we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o our_o own_o good_a god_n do_v give_v we_o leave_v so_o to_o do_v only_o here_o come_v in_o a_o question_n quest_n whether_o it_o be_v sinful_a to_o pray_v for_o affliction_n as_o sometime_o some_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o do_v answ_n to_o that_o i_o answer_v first_o take_v it_o absolute_o consider_v we_o may_v not_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v afflict_v we_o because_o affliction_n be_v in_o its_o self_n material_o a_o evil_a thing_n and_o a_o fruit_n of_o the_o curse_n therefore_o we_o may_v not_o i_o say_v absolute_o pray_v for_o it_o but_o thus_o far_o we_o may_v pray_v for_o affliction_n disjunctive_o conditional_o comparative_o disjunctive_o thus_o lord_n either_o grant_n unto_o i_o a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o such_o a_o mercy_n or_o otherwise_o let_v i_o rather_o be_v without_o it_o let_v i_o have_v a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o my_o sickness_n or_o otherwise_o let_v my_o sickness_n be_v continue_v to_o i_o thus_o now_o you_o may_v pray_v for_o continue_v in_o sickness_n or_o thus_o conditional_o lord_n if_o thou_o see_v that_o my_o heart_n be_v so_o vile_a and_o wretched_a that_o i_o will_v abuse_v through_o my_o corruption_n such_o and_o such_o mercy_n lord_n rather_o take_v they_o from_o i_o and_o let_v i_o be_v without_o they_o if_o thou_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o break_v this_o proud_a heart_n of_o i_o but_o such_o a_o way_n lord_n let_v that_o be_v thy_o way_n to_o break_v it_o if_o thou_o see_v it_o according_a to_o thy_o will_n as_o the_o fit_a way_n then_o comparative_o thus_o lord_n rather_o let_v i_o have_v any_o affliction_n than_o sin_n rather_o let_v i_o suffer_v loss_n of_o my_o estate_n then_o sin_n against_o thou_o then_o depart_v from_o thou_o any_o thing_n lord_n rather_o than_o sin_n thus_o you_o may_v pray_v for_o affliction_n but_o not_o absolute_o you_o must_v not_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v send_v you_o affliction_n absolute_o for_o you_o do_v not_o know_v your_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v if_o affliction_n shall_v come_v your_o heart_n may_v be_v as_o stubborn_a under_o your_o affliction_n as_o they_o be_v now_o for_o affliction_n have_v no_o power_n in_o itself_o to_o do_v we_o any_o good_a and_o then_o for_o the_o good_a of_o other_o for_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v our_o father_n there_o come_v in_o here_o a_o rebuke_n of_o the_o wicked_a practice_n of_o divers_a in_o curse_v and_o then_o a_o question_n
this_o or_o what_o great_a good_a there_o be_v in_o preparation_n for_o god_n worship_n 4._o four_o i_o shall_v answer_v a_o case_n of_o conscience_n or_o two_o 5._o five_o i_o will_v show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o sanctify_a god_n name_v 6_o sixthly_a the_o reason_n why_o god_n will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o worship_n first_o that_o there_o must_v be_v preparation_n to_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o first_o that_o god_n that_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n 1_o be_v a_o great_a and_o glorious_a god_n and_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o such_o a_o infinite_a glorious_a dreadful_a majesty_n it_o be_v fit_a that_o we_o shall_v make_v preparation_n when_o we_o come_v nigh_o unto_o he_o therefore_o in_o exod._n 19_o 10._o when_o god_n come_v among_o the_o people_n to_o give_v they_o his_o law_n he_o do_v require_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v sanctify_v to_o day_n and_o tomorrow_o and_o that_o they_o shall_v wash_v their_o clothes_n and_o be_v ready_a against_o the_o three_o day_n for_o the_o three_o day_n the_o lord_n will_v come_v down_o upon_o mount_n sinai_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o people_n god_n do_v not_o so_o much_o stand_v upon_o their_o clothes_n but_o it_o be_v to_o signify_v a_o inward_a wash_n now_o my_o brethren_n if_o when_o god_n come_v to_o give_v the_o law_n they_o be_v so_o to_o prepare_v then_o certain_o when_o we_o be_v to_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o be_v to_o prepare_v as_o well_o as_o they_o because_o god_n be_v come_v for_o that_o that_o be_v observable_a be_v why_o they_o be_v for_o two_o day_n together_o to_o make_v such_o preparation_n the_o argument_n be_v because_o of_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n say_v to_o moses_n go_v and_o sanctify_v the_o people_n to_o day_n and_o to_o morrow_n and_o let_v they_o wash_v their_o clothes_n and_o be_v ready_a against_o the_o three_o day_n why_o for_o the_o lord_n will_v come_v down_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o people_n upon_o mount_n sinai_n the_o lord_n will_v come_v down_o the_o three_o day_n and_o therefore_o let_v they_o be_v sanctify_v so_o when_o thou_o go_v to_o worship_n god_n thou_o expect_v or_o shall_v expect_v that_o god_n will_v come_v to_o thou_o and_o that_o thy_o heart_n shall_v be_v draw_v to_o god_n and_o therefore_o thou_o shall_v make_v some_o preparation_n for_o the_o time_n of_o preparation_n we_o shall_v speak_v to_o afterward_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o case_n of_o conscience_n about_o preparation_n for_o worship_n and_o so_o in_o 1_o chr._n 22._o 5._o 14._o david_n make_v preparation_n for_o the_o house_n of_o god_n because_o it_o be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n that_o he_o have_v to_o build_v though_o he_o can_v not_o do_v it_o himself_o in_o his_o own_o time_n yet_o be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n what_o great_a preparation_n be_v make_v by_o david_n the_o moral_a of_o which_o be_v this_o that_o the_o house_n of_o god_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o of_o christ_n it_o show_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v much_o preparation_n when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o god_n in_o his_o ordinance_n second_o 2_o as_o god_n be_v great_a that_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o so_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n be_v great_a duty_n they_o be_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o do_v concern_v we_o in_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o a_o very_a carnal_a heart_n to_o slight_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n to_o make_v account_n of_o they_o as_o little_a matter_n carnal_a heart_n ordinary_o the_o thing_n that_o concern_v their_o business_n in_o the_o world_n they_o think_v great_a matter_n oh_o i_o may_v not_o neglect_v that_o i_o may_v not_o neglect_v that_o i_o may_v not_o neglect_v such_o a_o business_n or_o i_o may_v not_o neglect_v to_o visit_v or_o gratify_v such_o a_o friend_n but_o now_o for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n it_o be_v good_a indeed_o but_o whither_o it_o be_v do_v or_o not_o it_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n therefore_o they_o can_v put_v off_o prayer_n if_o they_o have_v any_o business_n the_o time_n of_o prayer_n must_v pay_v for_o it_o they_o can_v put_v off_o that_o upon_o any_o slight_a occasion_n they_o do_v not_o account_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_v great_a matter_n my_o brethren_n i_o beseech_v you_o learn_v this_o lesson_n this_o morning_n to_o account_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_v great_a matter_n they_o be_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o do_v concern_v you_o here_o in_o this_o world_n for_o they_o be_v the_o homage_n that_o you_o tender_v up_o to_o the_o high_a god_n as_o you_o hear_v and_o those_o thing_n wherein_o god_n communicat_o himself_n in_o his_o choice_n mercy_n now_o be_v such_o great_a matter_n there_o be_v cause_n that_o we_o shall_v prepare_v for_o that_o one_o thing_n of_o prayer_n say_v luther_n it_o be_v a_o great_a work_n and_o a_o difficult_a work_n and_o therefore_o there_o have_v need_n be_v preparation_n for_o it_o business_n of_o great_a consequence_n we_o make_v preparation_n for_o indeed_o if_o a_o business_n be_v a_o slight_a business_n we_o can_v fall_v upon_o it_o on_o a_o sudden_a you_o make_v not_o preparation_n to_o go_v in_o a_o boat_n in_o the_o thames_n but_o to_o go_v a_o voyage_n you_o make_v great_a preparation_n now_o if_o man_n and_o woman_n will_v but_o understand_v the_o duty_n of_o god_n worship_n to_o be_v great_a they_o will_v see_v a_o necessity_n to_o make_v a_o preparation_n many_o

the_o time_n that_o be_v convenient_a to_o be_v spend_v in_o prayer_n before_o they_o begin_v to_o pray_v and_o so_o in_o hear_v the_o word_n they_o be_v a_o long_a time_n before_o they_o can_v

can_v get_v our_o heart_n to_o close_v with_o the_o worship_n now_o that_o be_v a_o sore_a and_o a_o great_a evil_a to_o lose_v any_o part_n of_o the_o time_n of_o worship_n christian_n i_o beseech_v you_o account_v high_o of_o the_o time_n of_o your_o worship_n you_o have_v be_v so_o long_a time_n at_o prayer_n yea_o but_o how_o much_o of_o it_o have_v be_v lose_v because_o you_o have_v not_o

they_o come_v together_o and_o they_o be_v a_o long_a time_n before_o they_o can_v buckle_v to_o the_o business_n that_o they_o come_v about_o because_o there_o be_v no_o preparation_n but_o if_o

it_o so_o that_o sometime_o when_o you_o have_v not_o be_v fit_a to_o perform_v a_o holy_a duty_n there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o more_o secret_a willingness_n of_o the_o heart_n to_o let_v the_o duty_n go_v than_o a_o sorrow_n of_o the_o heart_n because_o you_o be_v not_o it_o for_o the_o duty_n this_o be_v a_o very_a evil_a sign_n that_o the_o heart_n be_v very_o much_o distemper_v those_o that_o be_v godly_a indeed_o when_o they_o find_v not_o their_o heart_n prepare_v for_o the_o duty_n it_o be_v the_o trouble_n of_o their_o soul_n it_o be_v that_o that_o go_v near_o to_o their_o heart_n when_o they_o think_v with_o themselves_o that_o they_o be_v now_o like_a to_o lose_v a_o duty_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n they_o be_v now_o like_a to_o lose_v their_o communion_n with_o god_n in_o a_o holy_a duty_n they_o even_o look_v upon_o themselves_o in_o a_o evil_a case_n in_o regard_n of_o this_o and_o it_o make_v they_o watchful_a for_o time_n to_o come_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o have_v put_v they_o in_o such_o a_o unpreparation_n as_o they_o find_v their_o heart_n to_o be_v in_o at_o this_o time_n now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o with_o thou_o it_o be_v a_o good_a sign_n that_o thy_o heart_n may_v be_v upright_o with_o god_n though_o through_o infirmity_n it_o come_v at_o such_o a_o time_n to_o be_v unprepared_a for_o the_o duty_n but_o yet_o suppose_v i_o find_v i_o be_o not_o prepare_v i_o be_o grieve_a and_o trouble_v at_o it_o for_o that_o must_v be_v premise_v whether_o be_v i_o better_a to_o leave_v the_o duty_n for_o this_o time_n then_o to_o fall_v upon_o it_o in_o such_o a_o unpreparation_n as_o this_o be_v now_o for_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o question_n 1_o first_o that_o which_o i_o will_v answer_v to_o it_o be_v this_o the_o omission_n of_o a_o duty_n or_o the_o lay_n of_o a_o duty_n aside_o will_v never_o fit_v the_o soul_n for_o a_o duty_n afterward_o it_o be_v no_o way_n to_o make_v thy_o soul_n more_o fit_a afterward_o because_o thou_o have_v lay_v it_o aside_o now_o for_o the_o present_a do_v but_o observe_v your_o own_o heart_n that_o way_n and_o you_o will_v find_v this_o by_o experience_n such_o a_o time_n you_o have_v be_v busy_a in_o the_o world_n and_o occasion_n have_v hinder_v you_o so_o as_o your_o heart_n be_v out_o of_o temper_n and_o frame_v for_o a_o duty_n you_o lay_v it_o aside_o now_o be_v you_o more_o fit_a the_o next_o day_n if_o you_o do_v neglect_v duty_n in_o the_o morning_n upon_o any_o business_n be_v you_o fit_a to_o perform_v duty_n at_o night_n because_o of_o it_o you_o will_v not_o find_v it_o to_o be_v so_o the_o forbear_v a_o duty_n now_o will_v not_o make_v the_o soul_n fit_a for_o a_o duty_n afterward_o therefore_o be_v no_o wisdom_n to_o forbear_v a_o duty_n for_o want_n of_o preparation_n because_o the_o forbearance_n will_v never_o help_v to_o further_a preparation_n but_o will_v make_v the_o soul_n more_o unfit_a for_o duty_n it_o be_v a_o excellent_a speech_n that_o i_o read_v that_o luther_n have_v concern_v himself_o i_o have_v learn_v this_o by_o experience_n that_o the_o often_o i_o do_v omit_v duty_n the_o often_o do_v i_o make_v myself_o the_o more_o unfit_a for_o duty_n and_o cause_n i_o have_v to_o abhor_v myself_o it_o be_v not_o the_o defer_v that_o make_v thou_o the_o more_o fit_a 2_o therefore_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v but_o a_o temptation_n and_o that_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n that_o i_o will_v propound_v to_o those_o that_o shall_v omit_v a_o duty_n because_o they_o be_v not_o prepare_v that_o this_o be_v but_o a_o temptation_n to_o keep_v thou_o from_o it_o to_o tell_v thou_o that_o thou_o be_v not_o prepare_v and_o if_o thou_o shall_v forbear_v it_o because_o thou_o be_v not_o prepare_v in_o this_o thing_n thou_o do_v gratify_v the_o devil_n and_o the_o devil_n have_v what_o he_o will_v have_v and_o so_o will_v be_v encourage_v to_o tempt_v thou_o another_o time_n because_o he_o have_v now_o what_o he_o will_v have_v in_o cause_v thou_o to_o forbear_v the_o duty_n first_o he_o labour_v to_o unfit_a thou_o for_o it_o and_o then_o he_o tempt_v thou_o to_o forbear_v it_o because_o thou_o be_v unfit_a this_o be_v the_o subtlety_n of_o the_o devil_n from_o whence_o be_v it_o that_o thou_o be_v unfit_a but_o from_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o i_o and_o luther_n again_o that_o be_v a_o man_n that_o have_v as_o much_o converse_n with_o god_n as_o any_o in_o his_o day_n and_o a_o man_n that_o have_v as_o much_o to_o draw_v his_o heart_n away_o as_o many_o temptation_n and_o as_o many_o business_n as_o any_o for_o indeed_o the_o great_a cause_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o the_o christian_a world_n in_o a_o great_a measure_n under_o god_n lay_v upon_o his_o shoulder_n and_o yet_o say_v he_o if_o any_o one_o think_v that_o prayer_n must_v be_v defer_v till_o the_o soul_n be_v purify_v from_o impure_a cogitation_n he_o do_v no_o other_o than_o help_v the_o devil_n who_o be_v powerful_a enough_o he_o think_v to_o be_v wise_a in_o defer_v the_o duty_n because_o he_o be_v not_o fit_a and_o he_o have_v many_o ill_a thought_n and_o trouble_n in_o his_o spirit_n he_o do_v nothing_o else_o say_v luther_n but_o gratify_v the_o devil_n that_o be_v strong_a enough_o without_o this_o oh_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o gratify_v the_o devil_n in_o his_o temptation_n therefore_o remember_v it_o be_v a_o temptation_n for_o thou_o to_o omit_v a_o duty_n mere_o because_o thou_o be_v not_o prepare_v for_o the_o duty_n 3_o in_o the_o three_o place_n that_o which_o i_o will_v answer_v to_o this_o question_n be_v this_o if_o any_o one_o perform_v a_o duty_n of_o worship_n in_o that_o sincerity_n and_o strength_n that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o though_o he_o be_v not_o prepare_v as_o he_o ought_v yet_o it_o be_v better_a to_o do_v it_o then_o to_o neglect_v it_o it_o be_v true_a some_o do_v perform_v a_o duty_n in_o a_o mere_a formal_a way_n and_o to_o satisfy_v their_o conscience_n or_o to_o cloak_n and_o cover_v their_o sin_n and_o the_o like_a perhaps_o they_o may_v so_o perform_v it_o as_o it_o may_v be_v better_a to_o be_v unperformed_a then_o to_o perform_v it_o as_o they_o do_v but_o if_o you_o do_v endeavour_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o your_o strength_n to_o do_v it_o though_o you_o be_v not_o prepare_v as_o you_o do_v desire_n yet_o it_o be_v better_a to_o do_v it_o then_o to_o omit_v the_o do_n of_o it_o and_o you_o will_v find_v it_o so_o for_o one_o duty_n do_v prepare_v for_o another_o though_o it_o be_v not_o do_v as_o i_o desire_v it_o shall_v be_v do_v yet_o the_o do_v of_o it_o as_o well_o as_o i_o can_v at_o this_o time_n will_v help_v i_o to_o do_v it_o better_o at_o another_o time_n that_o be_v certain_a as_o one_o sin_n do_v prepare_v the_o heart_n for_o another_o sin_n so_o one_o duty_n prepare_v the_o heart_n for_o another_o as_o now_o suppose_v a_o man_n commit_v a_o sin_n and_o he_o have_v a_o conscience_n that_o be_v enlighten_v that_o do_v hinder_v he_o from_o commit_v his_o sin_n with_o that_o full_a strength_n that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o many_o a_o man_n have_v a_o mind_n to_o sin_v but_o through_o the_o enlighten_v of_o his_o conscience_n he_o can_v sin_v with_o that_o delight_n as_o he_o will_v because_o his_o conscience_n fly_v in_o his_o face_n and_o do_v interrupt_v he_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o through_o the_o strength_n of_o his_o corruption_n he_o will_v break_v through_o to_o that_o sin_n now_o though_o at_o first_o they_o can_v commit_v that_o sin_n with_o that_o delight_n and_o freedom_n as_o they_o do_v at_o other_o time_n yet_o if_o their_o corruption_n be_v so_o strong_a as_o to_o break_v through_o the_o light_n of_o their_o conscience_n the_o next_o time_n they_o come_v to_o the_o commit_n of_o that_o sin_n they_o will_v commit_v it_o with_o more_o freedom_n and_o ease_v a_o great_a deal_n this_o be_v evident_a by_o experience_n there_o be_v none_o of_o you_o but_o if_o you_o well_o observe_v your_o heart_n you_o will_v find_v this_o a_o temptation_n come_v to_o a_o sin_n now_o you_o can_v do_v it_o with_o so_o much_o freedom_n as_o

how_o by_o sin_n he_o have_v put_v himself_o under_o justice_n and_o deserve_v the_o stroke_n of_o justice_n to_o be_v upon_o he_o to_o eternity_n he_o shall_v consider_v what_o he_o be_v in_o

therefore_o not_o to_o dare_v to_o come_v but_o through_o a_o mediator_n here_o you_o have_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o must_v tender_v up_o all_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n because_o when_o we_o be_v to_o come_v before_o god_n we_o be_v to_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o his_o justice_n for_o thou_o to_o think_v thus_o i_o have_v sin_v and_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o i_o will_v go_v and_o

of_o his_o worship_n 1_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v this_o it_o be_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n to_o will_n himself_o the_o last_o end_n and_o all_o other_o thing_n to_o work_v suitable_a to_o

it_o be_v that_o which_o i_o conceive_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n holinsse_n consist_v in_o the_o willing_a himself_o as_o the_o last_o end_n and_o so_o to_o work_v all_o thing_n as_o be_v
