or not prophaned not only in the duty of the third Commandement so mentioned but even all of them so what is either expressed or intimated in this petition is thus sumed up and declared the second petition order and Analysis of it shewing the parts of the same what meant by Gods Kingdome and how prayed for that it may come as his Kingdome of grace how to be promoted and his Kingdom of glory to be compleat and hastened the Scepter of Gods Kingdome and officers and instruments exercised in it according to their places and degrees as well as the opposite of it the Kingdome of Satan described so what is either intimated or expressed in this second Petition here briefly summed up and delivered the third petition with the order and Analysis of it what the will of God is and performance thereof here intended on earth by men as by Angels in heaven with all alacrity willingnesse and constancy the opposite whereof proceeding from the world the flesh and the Divell how to traine our selves to seek and our will to be more pliable to Gods will which is to be sought in his word and all both active and passive obedience to be ye elded unto it so what is either expressed or intimated in this third petition is here summed up and this briefly delivered 1. HOw many petitions are there and how divided Six in all thus distinguished I. The three former concerning heavenly things for the glory of God viz. 1. Hallowed be thy name 2. Thy kingdome come 3. Thy will be done c. II. The three latter part temporall and part spirituall things for our good 4. Give us this day our daily bread 5. And forgive us c. 6. Lead us not c. 2. Doe not all of them concerne Gods glory Yes but the first primarily and immediately and wholy intend it the three latter not so immediately but of necessary consequence and secondarily as wee ought to referre our selves and all our good to the glory of God 3. What learne you from the order of them In the first place to propose the glory of God in all our actions and prayers which cannot bee without our exceeding good and then our own good but so as directed to the glory of God and all things shall succeed well with us and our prayers bee heard according to that Seeke yee first the kingdome of heaven and the righteousnesse thereof and all these things shal be ministred unto you 4. What farther reasons for this 1. For that God is to bee respected absolutely for himselfe man for Gods sake as first such the order of the two Tables the duty to God for himselfe to men for his sake Secondly so God reverenced simply for his owne Rulers for his sake Thirdly God if he command as in his owne power is obeyed for his owne men in his right and for his sake whence they that respect men and above God may bee great persons ashamed and confounded 2. Gods creation and workes were and are principally for his glory and so ought our works intentions and prayers to be 3. The finall dissolution and end of all and judgement is for his glory and so the end of all our actions and of our duty should bee for his glory 4. Gods Saints servants holy men and Angels doe all aime at his glory principally and so ought wee if ever we hope to bee of that holy company 5. The very vessels of wrath and evill Angels are and shall bee to his glory the glory of his justice and so shall we if we neglect it here So this the scope that God prefixeth to his own actions and ours and all good creatures doe it willingly and all others shall doe it though unwillingly for God will have it done so deare unto him is his glory 5. What note you else generally in petitions The forme or manner of them they showing all the parts of prayer as well as the substance of it I. Ingenerall expresly in the whole frame of the prayer wherein the 1. Preface is confession 2. Petition and intercession the body of it 3. Praise and thanks giving the conclusion II. Particular in each of them and is either First expressed as 1. Petition for our selves 2. Intercession for others in the very words of each petition so uttered indefinitely or in the plurall number as they are Secondly intimated else therein a 1. Confession of some due to God or duty from us or both or neglect too frequent in us and others 2. Deprecation against such neglect or things opposite to the petition 3. Thanksgiving and praise for the performance of our vowes and duty by us or others in any measure as also for graces desired hoped or received which more in particular will be seene in the handling of each severall petition 6. What for the number of the petitions The equality 1. argueth his mercy that will heare us as much for our good as his owne glory 2. Sheweth our duty that ought as much to seeke his glory as our owne good if not more 3. Reproveth us else and our ingratitude that can desire more or more earnestly for our selves then his glory since hee hath granted us to pray three for his glory and three for our good with promise to heare a shame to inconsiderate petitioners that can aske three score for themselves ere one for God 7. How doe the three first petitions concerne his glory As they desire his name kingdome and will to be sanctified promoted and performed and honour so advanced as in the 1. That his honour in holinesse may be promoted hallowed c. 2. That his honour in power may be propagated Thy Kingdome come 3. That his honour in obedience may bee performed Thy will be done c. 8. What desire you then in that first petition Hallowed be thy name That Gods holy name may bee glorified in the holy and reverend use of his titles words and workes 9. Why this petition first placed Because none can bee truly a subject of Gods kingdome or doe his will that doth not in the first place propose this the scope of all his actions and make principall account of Gods glory 10. Who erre from this Whosoever either 1. Propose any thing to themselves before or above Gods glory as honour riches profit pleasure 2. Account such gaine godlinesse and so are but fleshly minded puffed up and knowing nothing as they ought 3. Runne on in prophane courses to the dishonour of God 11. What parts of this petition Two the 1. Object the name of God 2. Action sanctifying it 12. What is meant by the name of God As is expressed in the third Commandement the meanes whereby hee is made knowne unto men or his glory showne in the world whereby even every thing that serveth or should serve for his honour in some sort or other therein comprehended and briefly thus I. His titles 1. Proper Jehovah Lord God and the like Father Sonne Holy Ghost
