have_v those_o love_a bait_n from_o he_o he_o pray_v but_o he_o do_v not_o desire_v there_o be_v many_o that_o pray_v they_o say_v in_o their_o prayer_n lead_v we_o not_o in_o temptation_n and_o yet_o they_o run_v into_o temptation_n they_o feed_v their_o eye_n and_o ear_n and_o sense_n with_o vain_a thing_n you_o know_v what_o they_o be_v well_o enough_o their_o life_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o satisfy_n of_o their_o lust_n and_o yet_o they_o pray_v lead_v we_o not_o in_o temptation_n and_o there_o be_v many_o person_n that_o desire_v that_o that_o they_o dare_v not_o pray_v for_o they_o desire_v to_o be_v so_o bad_a but_o a_o christian_n what_o he_o desire_v he_o pray_v for_o i_o desire_v in_o earnest_a to_o be_v in_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n i_o desire_v it_o of_o the_o lord_n i_o put_v up_o my_o request_n to_o he_o and_o what_o i_o pray_v to_o he_o for_o i_o earnest_o desire_v indeed_o learn_v this_o in_o a_o word_n hence_o that_o when_o we_o have_v holy_a desire_n stir_v up_o by_o god_n turn_v prayer_n they_o to_o prayer_n a_o prayer_n be_v more_o than_o god_n a_o desire_n it_o be_v a_o desire_n put_v up_o to_o god_n let_v we_o turn_v our_o desire_n into_o prayer_n that_o be_v the_o way_n to_o have_v they_o speed_n one_o thing_n have_v i_o desire_v of_o the_o lord_n the_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v in_o all_o our_o desire_n make_v our_o desire_n know_v to_o god_n be_v to_o keep_v our_o acquaintance_n continual_o with_o god_n we_o have_v continual_a use_n of_o desire_n of_o grace_n and_o desire_n of_o mortification_n of_o corruption_n and_o of_o freedom_n from_o this_o and_o that_o evil_a that_o be_v upon_o we_o as_o many_o desire_n as_o we_o have_v let_v they_o be_v so_o many_o prayer_n turn_v our_o desire_n into_o prayer_n to_o god_n and_o so_o maintain_v our_o acquaintance_n with_o god_n and_o we_o shall_v never_o come_v from_o god_n without_o a_o blessing_n and_o comfort_n he_o never_o send_v any_o out_o of_o his_o presence_n empty_a that_o come_v with_o a_o gracious_a heart_n that_o know_v what_o they_o desire_v and_o it_o bring_v peace_n with_o it_o when_o we_o make_v our_o desire_n know_v to_o god_n by_o our_o prayer_n it_o bring_v peace_n that_o pass_v understanding_n ephes._n 4._o 4._o put_v case_n god_n do_v not_o hear_v our_o request_n that_o he_o do_v not_o grant_v what_o we_o ask_v the_o peace_n of_o god_n which_o pass_v understanding_n shall_v keep_v your_o heart_n and_o mind_n so_o that_o when_o we_o put_v up_o our_o request_n to_o god_n with_o thankfulness_n for_o that_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o soul_n will_v find_v peace_n therefore_o i_o say_v let_v we_o turn_v all_o our_o desire_n into_o prayer_n to_o maintain_v perpetual_a communion_n and_o acquaintance_n with_o god_n oh_o it_o be_v a_o gainful_a and_o comfortable_a acquaintance_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n and_o conscience_n sign_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n for_o a_o man_n to_o go_v oft_o to_o god_n with_o his_o desire_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o he_o be_v not_o in_o a_o wicked_a course_n for_o than_o he_o dare_v not_o appeal_v to_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n sore_a eye_n can_v endure_v the_o light_n and_o a_o gall_a conscience_n can_v endure_v god_n presence_n therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o come_v oft_o into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n it_o show_v that_o the_o heart_n do_v not_o regard_v iniquity_n if_o i_o regard_v iniquity_n in_o my_o heart_n god_n will_v not_o hear_v my_o prayer_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n to_o come_v oft_o into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n but_o i_o will_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o common_a place_n of_o prayer_n we_o see_v next_o his_o earnestness_n i_o have_v desire_v it_o of_o the_o lord_n and_o i_o will_v seek_v after_o it_o i_o will_v follow_v god_n still_o importunity_n here_o be_v his_o importunity_n in_o prayer_n his_o fervency_n his_o uncessancy_n and_o perseverance_n as_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v he_o persevere_v in_o prayer_n i_o will_v seek_v after_o it_o in_o prayer_n and_o in_o the_o use_n of_o all_o good_a mean_n i_o will_v do_v what_o prayer_n i_o can_v so_o you_o see_v one_o qualification_n of_o prayer_n it_o must_v be_v with_o perseverance_n and_o importunity_n god_n love_v importunate_a suitor_n though_o we_o can_v endure_v to_o be_v trouble_v with_o such_o person_n yet_o god_n love_v importunate_a suitor_n as_o we_o see_v in_o luke_n 18._o 18._o in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o widow_n god_n there_o vouch_v save_v to_o compare_v himself_o to_o a_o unrighteous_a judge_n that_o care_v neither_o for_o god_n nor_o man_n yet_o the_o importunity_n of_o the_o widow_n move_v he_o to_o regard_v she_o so_o the_o poor_a church_n of_o god_n she_o be_v like_o a_o widow_n with_o her_o hair_n hang_v about_o she_o this_o be_v zion_n who_o none_o regard_v yet_o this_o widow_n the_o poor_a church_n of_o god_n and_o every_o particular_a member_n of_o it_o they_o be_v importunate_a with_o the_o judge_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o god_n and_o will_v not_o he_o more_o regard_v the_o importunity_n of_o his_o child_n who_o he_o love_v and_o delight_n in_o that_o call_v upon_o he_o day_n and_o night_n will_v not_o he_o regard_v their_o petition_n when_o a_o unrighteous_a judge_n shall_v care_v for_o the_o importunity_n of_o a_o poor_a widow_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o excellent_a fruit_n of_o importunity_n in_o our_o bless_a saviour_n himself_o and_o here_o in_o david_n i_o will_v seek_v after_o it_o i_o will_v have_v no_o nay_o therefore_o we_o be_v exhort_v in_o the_o scripture_n not_o to_o keep_v silence_n to_o give_v god_n no_o rest_n you_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n remembrancer_n keep_v not_o silence_n give_v he_o no_o rest_n as_o jacob_n with_o the_o angel_n wrestle_v with_o he_o leave_v he_o not_o till_o we_o have_v a_o blessing_n as_o the_o woman_n of_o canaan_n let_v we_o follow_v he_o still_o and_o take_v no_o nay_o oh_o this_o be_v a_o bless_a violence_n belove_v when_o we_o can_v set_v upon_o god_n and_o will_v have_v no_o nay_o but_o renew_v suit_n upon_o suit_n and_o desire_v on_o desire_n and_o never_o leave_v till_o our_o petition_n be_v answer_v can_v the_o hypocrite_n pray_v always_o will_v you_o know_v a_o comfortable_a note_n to_o distinguish_v a_o hypocrite_n from_o a_o true_a christian_n take_v it_o hence_o will_v the_o hypocrite_n pray_v always_o sometime_o he_o will_v pray_v but_o if_o god_n answer_v he_o not_o present_o he_o give_v over_o but_o god_n child_n pray_v always_o if_o the_o ground_n be_v good_a if_o they_o see_v the_o excellency_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o the_o necessity_n and_o withal_o join_v at_o the_o amiableness_n of_o it_o that_o it_o may_v be_v get_v when_o they_o see_v the_o excellency_n and_o the_o necessity_n and_o usefulness_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o the_o attainablenesse_n of_o it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v attainable_a in_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n they_o need_v no_o more_o they_o will_v never_o give_v over_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o in_o the_o petition_n thy_o kingdom_n come_v thy_o will_n be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o can_v we_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v do_v in_o heaven_n and_o do_v god_n glorious_a kingdom_n of_o heaven_n come_v while_o we_o be_v here_o in_o earth_n no_o it_o do_v not_o but_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v guide_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n it_o rest_v not_o in_o this_o or_o that_o degree_n but_o pray_v till_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n thy_o kingdom_n come_v i_o have_v grace_n now_o but_o i_o desire_v glory_n thy_o will_v be_v do_v i_o desire_v to_o do_v it_o as_o thy_o saint_n in_o heaven_n though_o i_o can_v do_v it_o but_o i_o desire_v and_o i_o will_v not_o give_v god_n rest_n but_o pray_v till_o all_o my_o prayer_n be_v answer_v in_o heaven_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v do_v in_o heaven_n indeed_o thus_o we_o ought_v eager_o and_o constant_o to_o persevere_v in_o our_o desire_n till_o they_o be_v full_o satisfy_v or_o else_o we_o be_v but_o hypocrite_n let_v we_o make_v conscience_n i_o beseech_v you_o of_o this_o duty_n more_o than_o we_o have_v do_v and_o never_o give_v god_n over_o for_o grace_n for_o strength_n against_o our_o corruption_n for_o his_o church_n for_o the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o salvation_n for_o those_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v ground_n for_o let_v we_o never_o give_v he_o over_o till_o we_o see_v he_o have_v answer_v our_o desire_n and_o when_o he_o have_v answer_v our_o desire_n let_v we_o go_v on_o still_o to_o desire_v more_o for_o this_o life_n be_v a_o life_n of_o desire_n the_o life_n of_o accomplishment_n be_v
