A05061	The chariot and horsemen of Israel A discourse of prayer: shewing what it is, as also the meanes to attaine to the practise of it. An exercise so rare in the world, and yet so requisite, as few vse it aright, and none may omit it. By Henry Langley, minister of the Word of God, at Treswell in the county of Nottingham.	Langley, Henry, d. 1636.	1616 (1616)	STC 15202; ESTC S108258	40,085	136

I. Kingdome which respects the wel-spring and fountaine of all good things II. Power which respects the meanes III. Glory which respects the end For as the Apostle witnesseth Rom. 11.36 Of him there is Kingdome and through him there is power and to him there is glory are al things The Conclusion is in the last word Amen which is as much to say as I. Lord let it be as I haue prayed II. Lord I beleeue it shall be so III. Lord helpe mine vnbeliefe All this as I haue said before is common to all the three diuisions the varietie is onely in the sixe petitions The I. Analysis The First is the common receiued Diuision of them into two threes The First three concerning God The last three our selues The ground of which diuision is not from the Efficient or Author bestowing these blessings For it is one and the same God which halloweth his name sendeth his Kingdome enableth to doe his will giueth bread forgiueth sins and preserueth from euill Nor from our Head containing these good things for vs and communicating them vnto vs For from the fulnesse of one and the same Christ commeth all Neither yet from the finall cause or end either maine for the Lord is glorified in both or subordinate for we are benefitted by both But it proceedeth from the reall subiect or obiect viz the things where-about our praiers in asking and Gods grace in giuing are exercised The first generall branch containing God his I. Name II. Kingdome III. Will. The second our I. Earthly necessaries II. Sinnes committed III. Dangers eminent In the former There is I. The End of all besides God in the 1. Petition II. The subiect of all happines from God in the 2. petition III. The rule of all obedience to bee performed to God in the 3. petition In the latter three there is contained I. The space of repentance in the 4. petition II. The exercise of the grace of repentance in the 5. Petition III. The soueraigne preseruatiue of a Christian from euill after repentance in the 6. petition The II. Analysis I. In the first petition is laid downe the maine end of all to bee aymed at II. In the other fiue is laid downe the meanes consisting in things which doe respect the hallowing of Gods name I. In this world in all the petitions II. In the world to come in the second petition viz. the reuealing the Kingdome of glory All which doe concerne the life of a Christian And that I. Simply II. Respectiuely The things simply concerning the life of a Christian to insist vpon those that respect this life are I. Spirituall II. Temporall The Spirituall are laid downe I. Causiuely in the 2. petition II. Effectiuely in the 3. petition The temporall or earthly are laid downe in the 4. petition The Accidentall are such as doe respect a Christian ouer and besides the simple course of Christianitie and the honest resolution of his owne heart The which are referred to two heads I. Pardon of euils committed in the 5. petition II. Preuention of those whereof he is in danger in the 6. petitioÌ„ Heere before I proceed to the third diuision I would craue leaue to shew my opinion concerning one obseruation vsually collected from the methode of the three last petitions namely that there is in them an inuersion of Christs methode recorded else-where in the Scriptures to wit Mat. 6.33 Seeke yee first the Kingdome of God and his righteousnesse and all these things shall be added vnto you The spirits of the Prophets are subiect to the Prophets and I willingly submit my conceit to the learned To shew then what I thinke I finde heere no inuersion For the things which concerne a Christian simply are to bee preferred before those that doe concerne him but respectiuely and accidentally Now in the 2. 3. and 4. petitions are contained those things which concerne him simply In which three petitions that other methode of our Sauiour is most strictly and precisely obserued For what saith he Seeke yee first the Kingdome of God that is laid downe in the 2. petition Thy Kingdome come and his righteousnesse in the 3. petition Thy will bee done For that is the righteousnes of the Kingdome of God and all these things shall be ministred vnto you in the fourth petition Giue vs this day our daily bread Where our Sauior brings a Christian I. To the Graces and Glory of a Christian in the 2. petitioÌ„ II. To the duties of a Christian in the 3. petition III. And at the last to the subiect wherein and time when a Christian is to exercise his graces in the performance of the good workes which his God hath created for him to walke in that with comfort hee may looke for that blessed hope Tit. 2.13 and the glorious appearing of that great God and our Sauiour Iesus Christ Then this poore Christian comming to his calling to exercise these good duties findeth contrary to the exaction of his God and the resolution of his owne heart which was to walke in all the good wayes of his God that when he would doe good Rom. 7. euill is present with him In so much that the good he would doe he doth not but rather the euill which he would not doe that he doth by reason of the Law of sin which remaineth in his members I say this being so Our Sauiour teacheth vs in the next place to pray Forgiue vs our trespasses c. And lastly because when sinne committed is pardoned wee are subiect still to fall in part Satan continuing his malice our Cananitish lusts not being altogether extirpated and rooted out and withal our sufficiency being wholly of God he addeth Lead vs not into tentation but deliuer vs from euill The III. Analysis In the sixe petitions are two things to be considered in generall I. The maine end of all to bee aymed at in the first petition II. The meanes whereby this end is atchieued in the fiue petitions following All which doe concerne the person praying or praied for And in a three-fold respect viz. of I. Our new man II. Our outward man III. Our old man Our new man in the second and third petitions 1. CausiuÃ¨ in the 2. petition 2. EffectiuÃ¨ in the 3. petition Our Outward man in the 4. petition Our old man to wit the remaines of our corruptions in the fifth and sixth petitions and that considered in respect of 1. Sinne committed to be pardoned in the 5. petition 2. Euill eminent to be preuented in the 6. petition To come to a Mathematicall demonstration here is a sphere wherin we may consider I. The Center II. The Lines III. The Circumference The Center is the fourth petition For it is a subiect necessarily to be granted in the first place that a man must liue otherwise hee is not capable of the gracious dealing of the Lord I. In respect of the new man in visiting him with his Kingdome of grace to enable him to walke in the way of obedience to his will through Iesus Christ vnto his Kingdome of glory II. Neither in respect of the old man in pardoning sinne past or preuenting euill to come All which doe inferre that a man must liue The lines are I. Super-circuler aboue the diameter II. Or subcirculer vnder the diamiter The lines aboue the diamiter are the 2. and 3. petitions The lines vnder the diamiter are the 5. and 6. petitions And these doe in opposition answere one another ex diametro The third petition is Thy will be done c. The fifth petition Forgiue vs our trespasses c answereth it on the contrary For these trespasses are disobediences against the will of God by way of omission and commission The second petitioÌ„ is Thy Kingdome come that is the Kingdome of grace in this world and the Kingdome of glory in the world to come The sixth petition answereth it likewise on the contrary Lead vs not into tentation but deliuer vs from euill that is the euill of sinne in this world opposite to the Kingdome of grace and the euill of death in the world to come opposite to the Kingdome of glory The circumference terminating the lines and compassing the Center is the first petition Hallowed bee thy name For the Lord doth send downe his Kingdome for the glory of his name enable vs to do his will for the glory of his name forgiue our sinnes for the glory of his name and deliuer from euill for the glory of his name And to conclude he giueth temporall blessings for the glory of his name 1. TIM 1.17 Now vnto the King eternall immortal inuisible the onely wise God be honour and glory for euer and euer Amen FINIS

alter our obiect For the second namely how farre we alter We must consider that in regard of I. Our obiect II. Our Prayers III. Our selues In regard of the Obiect God our altring is Personal not Essential For there is but one indiuisible Godhead In regard of our Prayer our altring doth not respect the prayer simply but respectiuely as a prayer containing such or such matter Lastly in regard of our selues we vary our phrase not our faith We direct our prayer or speech in prayer to this or that Person but our faith is one and the same grounded vpon the promises made to vs by that one indiuisible Deitie equally respecting each Person in the Trinitie In the last place the reasons why wee alter our obiect that is direct our speech in prayer to this or that Person are I. To conforme our prayers and termes to the Trinities distinct manner of working II. To stirre vp in vs a greater reuerent respect of euery Person as God The which our Sauiour sheweth to be a special reason of their distinct manner of working l Ioh. 5.22.23 The Father saith he iudgeth no man but hath committed all iudgement to the Sonne that men might honour the Sonne as they honour the Father III. The better to stirre vp and strengthen our Faith And that by mentioning the very distinct Efficients and workers of the good things we desire As also to moue affection in thankes-giuing Hauing so the more libertie to vse the termes that doe concerne their incommunicable proprieties Yet vsually we direct our prayers onely to the Father Because by office I. He is the fountaine of all goodnesse II. He is First-willer III. It belongeth to him to receiue our prayers CHAP. V. THE Adiuncts of Prayer follow And they are to be considered as concerning it I. Simply II. Respectiuely The Adiuncts considered 1. Simply The Adiuncts of prayer simply considered are these I. That prayer is a dutie belonging to euery man As appeareth in that it is commanded in the moral and a generall rule is prescribed by our Sauiour in the Gospell II. It is a dutie to which the Lord hath pleased to tye most gracious promises as a Ps 50. Call vpon me in the euill day so will I deliuer thee Aske saith our Sauiour b Ioh. 16.24 and yee shall receiue And the Apostle Iames c Iam. 4.2 layeth the cause of want vpon the neglect of this dutie III. It hath goodly immunities No place no time no person no thing so far as God may be glorified and wee haue good can prescribe against it Daniel d DaÌ„ 6.10.22 in his Chamber and in the denne Dauid e Ps 55.17 morning euening and at noone day they both called vpon the Lord and he heard them The Craft of Achitophel f 2. SaÌ„ 15.31 The power of Senacherib g Isa 37.16 c. the walls of Iericho h Iosh 6.20 The waters of the red sea i Exod. 14. The Clouds k Iam. 5.17 nay the Sun and Moone l Iosh 10.12 could no waies infringe it It raiseth fruit out of the earth m Iam. 5.18 and pulleth grace downe from n Iam. 1.5 heauen IV. The Profit is vnspeakable Yet to insist vpon some particulars Besides what may be gathered from the former properties it is a faithfull seruant it will neuer deceiue vs. It is a sure messenger it cannot bee intercepted but goeth to heauen inuisible It is a swift Post if we be brought into a strait it is with God in a moment In a word it is our only meanes of dutie which wee haue to the Lord both in prosperitie and aduersitie V. The Power is irresistable For what saith the Apostle o Heb. 11.33.34 of Faith which may not bee likewise said of Prayer For by it haue the worthies of God subdued Kingdomes wrought righteousnesse obtained promises stopped the mouthes of Lions quenched the violence of fire escaped the edge of the sword out of weakenesse were made strong waxed valiant in fight turned to flight the armies of the aliens To be short it is the Chariot and Horsemen of Israell VI. Lastly It is so worthy so essentiall a fruit of religion and of such generall vse that it is oft put for all religion And therefore is the Temple p Mat. 27.13 called the house of prayer Â§. 2. The Adiuncts considered II. Attributed to it in respect of 1. The Person praying and 1. His condition 2. His person and 1. Soule 2. Body 3. Both. The Adiuncts of Prayer in the second place are such as are attributed to it in respect of I. The Person praying II. The Ends of prayer III. The Subiect IV. The Time Those attributed to it in respect of the person praying doe concerne I. Either his Condition II. Or his Person Touching the state and condition of the person praying It is required alwaies in such prayers as a man looketh to finde comfort in that they be the prayers I. Of a man that is regenerate q Gen. 4. For the Lord reiected the offering of Cain because hee had a quarrell with his person And the Spirit who helpeth our infirmities and teacheth vs to pray as we ought is said r Rom. 8.26.27 to make intercession for the Saints that is onely for the Saints II. Of a man repentant for his euils which from time to time doe escape him as wee may see in the prophesie of Ieremy Å¿ Ier. 14.10.11.12 Thus saith the Lord vnto his people thus haue they loued to wander they haue not refrained their feet therefore the Lord doth not accept them hee will now remember their iniquitie and visit their sinnes Then said the Lord vnto mee pray not for this people for their good When they fast I will not heare their cry and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation I will not accept them III. Of a diligent and dutifull hearer of the Word of GOD. t Ier. 11.9.10.11 And the Lord said vnto mee saith Ieremy A conspiracy is found among the men of Iudah and among the inhabitants of Ierusalem They are turned backe to the iniquities of their forefathers which refused to heare my words c. Therefore thus saith the Lord Behold I will bring euill vpon them which they shall not be able to escape though they shall cry vnto mee I will not hearken vnto them IV. Of one that is charitable u Mar. 11.25 And when yee stand praying saith our Sauiour forgiue if yee haue ought against any that your Father also which is in heauen may forgiue you your trespasses The Adiuncts of prayer in respect of the person of him that praieth doe concerne 1. Soule 2. Body 3. Or both Touching the soule it is required that in regard of I. The vnderstanding our prayers be 1. Of knowledge Our Sauiour u Mat. 20.22 telleth the sonnes of Zebedee by way of reproofe that they asked they knew not what 2. Of
