give us all other Graces a lively hope that may save us yea in those times let us with Abraham against hope believe in hope and give us joy in the Holy Ghost Thou hast said Joy is sown for the Righteous and gladness for the upright in heart O give us a filial Fear because thou takest pleasure in those that fear thee For in that day that thou makest up â—â—y Jewels they shall be thine and thou wilt spare them as a man spareth his own Son that serveth him O give t is humility and lowliness of Spirit casting down imaginations and every thing that exalteth it self against the Knowledg of God O give us meekness of mind that the Wolf may dwell with the Lamb and the Leopard may lie down with the Kid the Calf and young Lion and the Fatling together whilst a little Child may lead them O give us peace of conscience and the peaco of God that may guide guard and garison our whole souls And for our further assurance o give an increase and growth to all these Graces and do thou guide us continually and satisfie our souls in drought O make Fat Our Bones that we may be like a watered Garden and like a Spring of water whose waters fail not O let the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing under his wings that we may go forth and grow up as the Calves of the Stall O that thopu would'st be pleased to make our path as the path of the just even as the shining light that shineth more and more unto the perfect day O that thou wouldest be unto us as dew unto Israel that we might grow as the Lilly and cast forth our Root as Lebanon that our branches might spread and our beauty be as the Olive-tree and our smell as Lebanon O Lord hast not thou said I will pour water upon him that is thirsty and floods upon the dry ground and I will pour my Spirit upon thy Seed and my blessing upon thy Off-spring O put into our hearts their ways who go from strength to strength every one of them in Zion appearing before God Nor pray we only for Remission but for cleansing not only for Pardon but for purifying and power against sin and deliverance from sin Holy God thou hast promised That he that is left in Zion and he that is left in Jerusalem shall be called holy when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the Daughters of Zion and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the Spirit of Judgment and by the Spirit of burning Holy God thou hast said thou wilt put thy law in our hearts and write it in our inward parts Holy God it is thy promise the first promise and the Foundation of all other promises that the Seed of the woman should bruise the Serpents head that Christ should break the Power and Dominion of Satan O that having those Promises we could live by Faith that we could rest upon God and believe that God of his Free Grace in Christ will purge us from the filthy Remainders of sin and renew us more and more after his Own Image in Righteousness and true holiness Surely Lord thoâ— hast said it and therefore no Presumption buâ— true Obedience to assure our selves of whatsoever thou hast promised and entred into bond and covenant Freely to give us He that believeth on thee as the Scripture saith Out of his belly shall flow Rivers of living waters Christ is a Fountain of Grace ever flowing and ever Full and of his fulness we all receive grace for grace There is no grace but from Christ nor no communion with Christ but by Faith O therefore that we could embtace him by Faith for our sanctification that so we might be filled with the gifts of his grace in our measure 'T is Christ that is our Wisdom and Sanctification as well as Righteousness and Redemption O that our Jesus would justifie our Persons and sanctifie our Natures and enable us to those duties of holiness that he requires and that he would make us unto himself a Kingdom of Priests an holy Nation O Lord we have many potent Enemies that daily war against us the World the Flesh and the Devil and Our strength is too weak to vanquish the Allurements of this World and to repress the Lusts of our rebellious hearts or to defeat the Polices of Satan much more to cleanse our own hearts But O Lord thou hast promised O help us to believe that God who is rich in mercy will aid and assist and bless our Endeavours yea and do the whole work for us and in us according to his good pleasure O grant we may not love the world nor the things of the world that our hearts be not over-charged with surfeiting and drunkenness and the cares of this life to neglect â—uâ— immortal souls O do thou be pleased to rouze us and lift us up from the death of sin unto a life of righteousness And good Lord grant that we may not suffer sin to reign in our mortal bodies that we should obey it in the lust â—hereof Neither suffer us to yeild our Members as â—nstruments of unrighteousness unto sin but unto God as those that are alive from the dead that being made free from sin and become the Servants of God we may have our fruit unto holiness and the end everlasting life And dear Father grant that we may be sober and vigilant because our Advetsary the Devil as a roaring Lion walketh about seeking whom he may devour O make us strong in the Lord and in the power of his might that we may be able to stand against all the wilds of Satan Why Lord we wrestle not against flesh and blood only but against principalities and powers against thr Rulers of the darkness of this world and against spiritual wickedness in high places O therefore strengthen us that we may stand having the girdle of truth about our Loins the Breastplate of Righteousness and the shield of Faith wherewith we may be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked We confess and acknowledg O Lord to thy glory that all our strength is in thee and in the power of thy might And dear Father we humbly beg that thou wilt be pleased to stand and stay by us by thy blessed Spirit of Grace the remaining part of our days that we may live righteously and godly in this present world so that we may be able to stand when the secrets of all hearts shall be laid open and may hear that joyful call thy blessed Son shall then pronounce Come ye blessed inherit the Kingdom prepared for you That then we may enter into those Joys that the Living God hath provided for such as Fear and Love and delight in him and for ever enjoy that glory our blessed Saviour speaketh of that he had with thee before the Foundation of the world O help us to draw near unto thee in
