feel_a zeal_n and_o fervency_n of_o spirit_n unto_o god_n be_v a_o sanctify_a prayer_n a_o acceptable_a prayer_n a_o prayer_n that_o pierce_v the_o cloud_n press_v unto_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o return_v not_o empty_a unto_o they_o that_o pour_v it_o forth_o such_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o meek_a moses_n for_o the_o israehte_n against_o pharaoh_n and_o prevail_v such_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o jehosaphat_n against_o ammon_n and_o moab_n and_o prevail_v such_o be_v the_o praver_fw-mi of_o the_o godly_a for_o paul_n in_o the_o act_n against_o his_o persecutor_n and_o prevail_v and_o such_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o the_o congregation_n here_o for_o peter_n and_o it_o likewise_o prevail_v such_o a_o prayer_n do_v the_o lord_n look_v for_o for_o such_o a_o prayer_n do_v he_o call_v upon_o david_n and_o we_o in_o david_n in_o the_o 149._o psalm_n call_v upon_o i_o in_o the_o day_n of_o tribulation_n and_o i_o will_v deliver_v thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v glorify_v i_o it_o be_v not_o the_o sling_n but_o the_o prayer_n of_o david_n that_o cause_v the_o stone_n to_o sink_v into_o the_o forehead_n of_o the_o uncircumcised_a philis●●an_n and_o behold_v the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v etc._n etc._n see_v here_o the_o powerful_a effect_n of_o prayer_n as_o the_o church_n send_v soorth_o their_o prayer_n so_o here_o god_n send_v forth_o his_o angel_n to_o execute_v that_o which_o they_o pray_v for_o rather_o than_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o just_a shall_v fast_v god_n cease_v not_o to_o work_v peter_n deliverance_n by_o a_o miracle_n the_o angel_n smite_v peter_n on_o the_o side_n &_o raise_v he_o up_o say_v up_o quick_o and_o the_o chain_n fall_v off_o from_o his_o hand_n their_o prayer_n find_v a_o speedy_a success_n in_o a_o most_o strange_a and_o extraordinary_a manner_n peter_n beyond_o all_o expectation_n be_v deliver_v for_o a_o great_a comfort_n to_o god_n church_n and_o the_o great_a terror_n to_o the_o persecute_v tyrant_n so_o have_v god_n his_o enemy_n in_o derision_n &_o laugh_v they_o to_o scorn_v in_o their_o own_o imaginatious_a when_o they_o think_v themselves_o most_o sure_o of_o peter_n even_o than_o they_o find_v themselves_o most_o deceive_v herod_n do_v purpose_n on_o the_o next_o morrow_n to_o put_v peter_n to_o death_n but_o he_o fail_v of_o his_o purpose_n as_o the_o philistines_n fail_v of_o samson_n though_o he_o lay_v bind_v with_o great_a cord_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o so_o man_n do_v purpose_n but_o god_n do_v dispose_v man_n imagine_v but_o god_n determine_v all_o to_o the_o best_a for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o hence_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v that_o whatsoever_o trouble_n shall_v happen_v unto_o we_o they_o be_v know_v before_o hand_n &_o be_v especial_o appoint_v upon_o who_o they_o shall_v fall_v so_o that_o they_o can_v come_v soon_o or_o late_a unto_o we_o nor_o can_v prevail_v further_o against_o we_o than_o god_n shall_v permit_v as_o god_n give_v herod_n power_n to_o

over_o his_o elect_a we_o find_v in_o the_o scripture_n as_o in_o the_o sixth_o of_o the_o second_o of_o king_n when_o the_o servant_n of_o eliseus_n rise_v up_o early_o in_o the_o morning_n to_o go_v

perish_v but_o he_o answer_v fear_v not_o they_o that_o be_v with_o we_o be_v more_o than_o they_o that_o be_v with_o they_o then_o elisha_n pray_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v open_v the_o eye_n of_o his_o servant_n that_o he_o may_v see_v and_o he_o look_v and_o behold_v the_o mountain_n be_v full_a of_o horse_n and_o chariot_n of_o fire_n round_o about_o elisha_n there_o we_o find_v god_n gracious_a providence_n guard_v the_o prophet_n and_o here_o we_o find_v another_o precedent_n of_o the_o like_a providence_n of_o god_n in_o rescue_v peter_n by_o the_o ministry_n of_o a_o angel_n from_o the_o violent_a rage_n of_o herod_n a_o angel_n appear_v to_o paul_n in_o that_o 27._o act_n 27._o dangerous_a voyage_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o none_o in_o the_o ship_n shall_v perish_v and_o

to_o protect_v they_o cause_v the_o fire_n against_o nature_n to_o lose_v his_o heat_n &_o as_o it_o be_v to_o quench_v itself_o in_o his_o own_o flame_n the_o fire_n lose_v his_o heat_n as_o the_o
