thy_o tempest_n job_n be_v in_o a_o fit_a of_o impatiency_n and_o unbelief_n and_o though_o god_n do_v give_v he_o return_n of_o prayer_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o do_v not_o observe_v they_o 5._o god_n may_v deny_v thou_o the_o mercy_n not_o that_o he_o be_v unable_a or_o unwilling_a to_o hear_v thou_o or_o relieve_v thou_o but_o to_o make_v thou_o the_o more_o desirous_a of_o and_o so_o the_o more_o fit_a for_o mercy_n it_o may_v be_v yet_o thou_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o a_o answer_n the_o philosopher_n beg_v some_o money_n of_o antigonus_n he_o give_v he_o a_o drachma_n he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o a_o king_n to_o give_v so_o little_a a_o talon_n have_v be_v a_o more_o suitable_a gift_n the_o king_n reply_v though_o a_o talon_n be_v fit_a for_o i_o to_o give_v yet_o thou_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o receive_v so_o though_o god_n be_v always_o fit_a and_o ready_a to_o give_v a_o answer_n to_o our_o prayer_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o always_o fit_a and_o ready_a to_o receive_v it_o god_n bid_v we_o open_v our_o mouth_n wide_a and_o i_o will_v fill_v it_o god_n deny_v we_o that_o we_o may_v open_v our_o mouth_n the_o wide_a and_o enlarge_v our_o desire_n the_o more_o after_o mercy_n the_o lord_n do_v by_o his_o people_n as_o a_o father_n by_o his_o child_n a_o father_n may_v seem_v to_o withdraw_v and_o hide_v himself_o from_o his_o child_n to_o try_v its_o love_n to_o he_o and_o the_o child_n begin_v to_o mourn_v and_o cry_v yet_o the_o father_n come_v not_o to_o the_o child_n but_o when_o he_o hear_v the_o child_n cry_v aloud_o than_o he_o come_v to_o it_o and_o take_v it_o up_o in_o his_o arm_n so_o the_o lord_n many_o time_n see_v his_o people_n pray_v but_o he_o seem_v to_o withdraw_v from_o they_o to_o hide_v himself_o from_o the_o prayer_n of_o his_o people_n and_o go_v as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o their_o sight_n until_o they_o begin_v to_o cry_v aloug_a to_o be_v very_o earnest_a and_o importunate_a in_o their_o prayer_n till_o their_o desire_n be_v enlarge_v towards_o god_n and_o than_o god_n gracious_o return_v their_o prayer_n into_o their_o bosom_n now_o this_o be_v a_o very_a good_a reason_n why_o god_n deny_v the_o prayer_n of_o his_o people_n desire_v defer_v vilescunt_fw-la grow_v the_o strong_a but_o if_o the_o mercy_n be_v soon_o give_v the_o desire_n grow_v cold_a and_o the_o mercy_n grow_v contemptible_a mannah_n light_o come_v be_v light_o set_v by_o god_n do_v by_o we_o as_o a_o fisherman_n do_v he_o draw_v back_o the_o bait_n that_o so_o the_o fish_n may_v come_v after_o it_o the_o more_o eager_o and_o bite_v the_o hard_a god_n seem_v to_o draw_v back_o a_o mercy_n that_o we_o may_v more_o earnest_o pursue_v it_o 6._o consider_v this_o that_o god_n people_n have_v pray_v and_o wait_v a_o long_a time_n before_o god_n have_v give_v they_o the_o mercy_n they_o have_v ask_v before_o god_n have_v give_v they_o a_o answer_n of_o their_o prayer_n god_n promise_v abraham_n a_o son_n that_o from_o he_o shall_v proceed_v such_o a_o one_o in_o who_o all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v bless_v that_o his_o seed_n shall_v be_v multiply_v as_o the_o star_n in_o the_o firmament_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v fifteen_o year_n between_o the_o time_n of_o god_n make_v he_o that_o promise_n and_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o it_o so_o likewise_o you_o find_v it_o in_o zacbariab_n and_o elizabeth_n they_o pray_v for_o a_o child_n at_o the_o first_o beginning_n of_o their_o marriage_n now_o god_n do_v hear_v their_o cry_n and_o prayer_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o give_v they_o a_o return_n till_o they_o be_v old_a and_o strike_v in_o year_n so_o likewise_o it_o be_v with_o the_o church_n lament_n 3._o vers_fw-la 8._o also_o when_o i_o cry_v and_o shout_n be_v shut_v out_o my_o prayer_n and_o ver_fw-la
