make_v unto_o prayer_n which_o be_v infinite_a in_o number_n and_o unmeasurable_a in_o greatness_n but_o take_v one_o for_o a_o example_n christ_n say_v in_o the_o gospel_n ask_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v give_v you_o seek_v and_o you_o shall_v find_v knock_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v open_v unto_o you_o 7.7_o matth._n 7.7_o which_o he_o deliver_v without_o limitation_n that_o we_o may_v know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v restrain_v to_o ourselves_o but_o if_o we_o ask_v for_o other_o we_o shall_v receive_v for_o they_o then_o let_v we_o set_v before_o our_o eye_n the_o manifold_a and_o happy_a experience_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o promise_n in_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n other_o and_o by_o the_o experience_n of_o they_o in_o other_o who_o by_o their_o prayer_n have_v obtain_v great_a thing_n for_o other_o as_o we_o have_v hear_v already_o that_o when_o we_o shall_v find_v this_o way_n god_n word_n and_o all_o his_o promise_n pure_a and_o most_o certain_o to_o be_v trust_v unto_o as_o silver_n that_o be_v try_v in_o a_o furnace_n of_o earth_n 12.6_o psal_n 12.6_o and_o fine_v seven_o fold_n we_o may_v rely_v upon_o they_o and_o so_o be_v willing_a to_o pray_v for_o other_o know_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o lose_v our_o labour_n three_o to_o these_o we_o must_v add_v the_o consideration_n of_o our_o own_o experience_n ourselves_o but_o most_o of_o in_o ourselves_o and_o remember_v for_o who_o we_o have_v pray_v and_o how_o often_o and_o what_o have_v be_v the_o success_n of_o our_o prayer_n as_o how_o we_o have_v pray_v heretofore_o for_o the_o life_n and_o preservation_n of_o our_o governor_n and_o namely_o of_o our_o late_a sovereign_a lady_n of_o famous_a memory_n queen_n elizabeth_n and_o how_o god_n have_v often_o deliver_v she_o from_o many_o great_a treason_n intend_v against_o she_o by_o the_o jesuite_n and_o other_o papist_n how_o we_o have_v pray_v for_o other_o as_o for_o the_o life_n health_n and_o prosperity_n of_o our_o parent_n husband_n wife_n child_n neighbour_n and_o friend_n in_o their_o several_a grief_n of_o mind_n and_o infirmity_n of_o body_n and_o other_o distress_n and_o what_o have_v follow_v thereupon_o as_o how_o they_o have_v be_v recover_v and_o comfort_v and_o otherwise_o holpen_v and_o relieve_v how_o here_o in_o the_o church_n we_o have_v sometime_o pray_v for_o those_o that_o have_v be_v very_o sick_a even_o at_o death_n door_n who_o have_v receive_v the_o sentence_n of_o death_n in_o themselves_o and_o yet_o they_o have_v recover_v and_o some_o of_o they_o be_v alive_a still_o that_o so_o as_o david_n say_v upon_o his_o former_a trial_n the_o lord_n that_o deliver_v i_o out_o of_o the_o paw_n of_o the_o lion_n 17.37_o 1._o sam._n 17.37_o and_o out_o of_o the_o paw_n of_o the_o bear_n he_o will_v deliver_v i_o out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o this_o philistim_n so_o we_o may_v upon_o our_o former_a experience_n bold_o say_v god_n that_o of_o his_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n have_v vouchsafe_v to_o hear_v i_o for_o such_o and_o such_o will_v hear_v i_o also_o at_o this_o time_n for_o these_o to_o this_o end_n also_o we_o must_v wise_o observe_v and_o diligent_o mark_v for_o

do_v and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a unthankfulnes_n in_o they_o unto_o god_n and_o man_n not_o to_o do_v it_o what_o blessing_n they_o have_v find_v upon_o themselves_o by_o such_o prayer_n not_o only_o that_o they_o may_v be_v thankful_a to_o god_n for_o they_o as_o they_o pray_v for_o they_o before_o but_o that_o be_v confirm_v by_o such_o experience_n they_o may_v the_o more_o willing_o and_o bold_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o for_o other_o at_o some_o other_o time_n as_o there_o shall_v be_v need_n and_o for_o want_v of_o this_o they_o can_v do_v it_o so_o cheerful_o and_o so_o confident_o as_o otherwise_o they_o may_v do_v to_o conclude_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v in_o one_o word_n other_o how_o great_o man_n fail_v in_o neglect_v to_o pray_v for_o other_o we_o see_v what_o be_v here_o require_v of_o we_o even_o that_o we_o be_v mindful_a to_o pray_v for_o other_o and_o what_o good_a reason_n there_o be_v for_o it_o both_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o own_o comfort_n and_o of_o their_o good_a let_v we_o examine_v ourselves_o to_o see_v whether_o we_o have_v be_v so_o careful_a to_o perform_v this_o duty_n unto_o they_o as_o we_o shall_v how_o often_o have_v we_o and_o do_v we_o pray_v for_o the_o good_a estate_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o other_o country_n as_o in_o france_n the_o netherlands_o geneva_n and_o such_o like_a that_o god_n will_v defend_v they_o from_o their_o enemy_n and_o enlarge_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n among_o they_o nay_o how_o often_o do_v we_o pray_v for_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o this_o land_n and_o in_o the_o kingdom_n unite_v how_o often_o for_o the_o king_n majesty_n the_o right_a honourable_a councillor_n judge_n and_o magistrate_n not_o only_o of_o this_o land_n but_o more_o special_o of_o our_o own_o country_n how_o often_o for_o our_o neighbour_n yea_o particular_o and_o by_o name_n for_o they_o of_o our_o own_o family_n as_o for_o all_o our_o child_n and_o servant_n yea_o let_v we_o call_v into_o our_o mind_n how_o often_o we_o have_v pray_v serious_o and_o in_o good_a earnest_n for_o those_o that_o have_v desire_v our_o prayer_n and_o have_v as_o it_o be_v make_v a_o covenant_n of_o prayer_n with_o we_o by_o promise_v that_o they_o will_v pray_v for_o we_o if_o we_o will_v remember_v they_o whether_o we_o have_v careful_o keep_v this_o promise_n and_o covenant_n or_o no_o and_o when_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o we_o have_v great_o fail_v this_o way_n let_v we_o be_v sorry_a that_o we_o have_v not_o do_v that_o good_a this_o way_n that_o we_o may_v and_o that_o have_v be_v look_v for_o at_o our_o hand_n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o can_v have_v that_o comfort_n in_o the_o common_a blessing_n of_o god_n in_o church_n and_o common_a wealth_n and_o upon_o private_a man_n that_o other_o have_v and_o let_v we_o determine_v for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v to_o be_v more_o mindful_a of_o other_o in_o our_o prayer_n and_o let_v we_o be_v so_o indeed_o especial_o of_o all_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o of_o all_o those_o that_o we_o have_v make_v this_o promise_n unto_o and_o so_o have_v bind_v ourselves_o to_o it_o by_o a_o covenant_n in_o the_o lord_n that_o so_o the_o lord_n may_v also_o reward_v we_o with_o the_o prayer_n of_o other_o and_o with_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o same_o in_o our_o great_a need_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v careful_o perform_v this_o duty_n unto_o they_o before_o especial_o let_v we_o remember_v to_o pray_v for_o the_o king_n and_o for_o all_o our_o governor_n as_o we_o be_v bind_v thereunto_o both_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o law_n of_o the_o realm_n as_o if_o we_o have_v make_v a_o certain_a promise_n to_o they_o for_o it_o the_o four_o sermon_n upon_o the_o first_o verse_n the_o lord_n hear_v thou_o in_o the_o day_n of_o trouble_n thus_o the_o people_n do_v speak_v unto_o god_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o their_o king_n and_o so_o they_o pray_v for_o he_o david_n the_o people_n pray_v for_o king_n david_n that_o god_n will_v hear_v he_o and_o defend_v he_o this_o practice_n of_o they_o must_v be_v our_o imitation_n for_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o subject_n likewise_o to_o pray_v for_o their_o prince_n and_o governor_n and_o as_o we_o do_v owe_v unto_o they_o tribute_n custom_n fear_n and_o honour_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 13.7_o rom._n 13.7_o so_o this_o duty_n of_o prayer_n also_o and_o most_o of_o all_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n in_o any_o to_o neglect_v it_o let_v we_o therefore_o do_v it_o king_n so_o shall_v we_o all_o do_v for_o our_o king_n and_o that_o of_o conscience_n public_o and_o private_o man_n for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v addict_v to_o themselves_o or_o to_o their_o friend_n in_o prayer_n the_o king_n they_o think_v be_v a_o
