among you may delight in you and be exalted by you that you may indeed become the people of his Holiness and the people of his Prayer seek to be made partakers of his holiness and follow after holiness and so follow after that ye may obtain Let there be such a heart in you and such an holy design heartily taken up and zealously pursued by you and the Lord will certainly accept you and answer your prayers and your profane enemies will then learn to take heed how they again mock or boast themselves against the prayers of the Saints It was reported of a great Church-man that when several Ministers were turn'd out of their places for non-conformity he said in disdain Wee 'l turn them out and let them see if they can pray them in again Once lift up holy hands to the Lord and God will give such Answer that they will take heed of boasting again against prayer And if yet they should take unto them the hardiness to say where is your God Doubt not but in a little time you shall have this song put into your mouths Lo this is our God we have waited for him and he will save us this is the Lord we have waited for him we will be glad and rejoyce in his salvation But if it must suffice you to pray and you will still go on to traverse your old ways suffering your sins and the world to hold the head of you let not such men think they shall receive any thing of the Lord. Wherefore once again be exhorted to come to a point in this matter and determine what ye will do If yet will not heartily come in in this necessary design of advancing in holiness you may even stand aside and sit out from that of Prayer for any good we can expect from you But if you are resolved on the former and that with all imaginable seriousness you will the more prosper in the latter let both go together in one and thenceforth look for good speed in either Well shall this Decree immediately go forth Say the word once but let it be with an unalterable resolution at least be advised to this which I pray forget not from the day of your next solemn appearing before God in this duty of Prayer for the publick let your Decree be dated and if need be let the very day be written down and so go and let it be heedfully prosecuted and upon each return of this solemn service let it be actually and expresly renewed O Lord God of Abraham Isaac and Israel keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people and prepare their heart unto thee FINIS Books Printed and Sold by Tho.
