many_o wicked_a man_n preach_v and_o i_o have_v know_v many_o wicked_a man_n counsel_n but_o i_o do_v never_o know_v any_o wicked_a man_n that_o can_v pray_v well_o nor_o any_o that_o can_v pray_v well_o live_v wicked_o this_o peter_n proove_v in_o his_o first_o epistle_n and_o four_o chapter_n when_o he_o say_v be_v sober_a and_o watchful_a in_o prayer_n show_v that_o all_o can_v pray_v but_o they_o which_o be_v sober_a and_o watchful_a this_o peter_n the_o apostle_n proove_v again_o in_o his_o first_o epistle_n and_o three_o chapter_n when_o he_o exhort_v the_o husband_n and_o wife_n to_o love_v one_o another_o lest_o their_o prayer_n be_v interrupt_v show_v that_o sin_n do_v hinder_v our_o prayer_n and_o that_o a_o man_n can_v pray_v hearty_o when_o wrath_n or_o malice_n or_o lust_n do_v carry_v his_o mind_n away_o this_o paul_n witness_v again_o when_o he_o say_v how_o shall_v they_o call_v upon_o he_o in_o who_o they_o have_v not_o believe_v show_v that_o none_o can_v pray_v but_o they_o which_o have_v faith_n and_o that_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o spirit_n be_v within_o if_o he_o can_v pray_v and_o therefore_o one_o say_v so_o long_o as_o god_n do_v not_o take_v away_o thy_o pray_v he_o have_v not_o take_v away_o his_o mercy_n see_v then_o that_o prayer_n be_v such_o a_o sacrifice_n as_o be_v offer_v to_o none_o but_o god_n and_o none_o can_v offer_v it_o but_o they_o which_o have_v faith_n 4._o and_o love_n and_o repentance_n to_o bring_v it_o to_o he_o as_o aaron_n do_v not_o stand_v before_o the_o lord_n before_o he_o be_v wash_v so_o let_v no_o man_n call_v upon_o god_n before_o he_o be_v sanctify_v for_o as_o isaac_n do_v first_o taste_n jacobs_n meat_n 25_o and_o then_o bless_v he_o when_o he_o like_v his_o offering_n so_o god_n will_v have_v a_o offering_n which_o please_v he_o before_o he_o give_v the_o blessing_n which_o please_v us._n therefore_o as_o jacob_n charge_v his_o son_n when_o they_o go_v unto_o joseph_n take_v the_o best_a fruit_n of_o the_o land_n and_o give_v unto_o he_o 11_o so_o i_o advise_v myself_o and_o you_o when_o we_o go_v to_o god_n let_v we_o take_v the_o best_a fruit_n of_o our_o heart_n and_o give_v unto_o he_o that_o be_v not_o the_o show_n of_o repentance_n but_o repentance_n in_o deed_n as_o abraham_n leave_v his_o ass_n at_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o hill_n when_o he_o go_v to_o sacrifice_v so_o when_o we_o go_v to_o pray_v we_o must_v leave_v our_o passion_n and_o affection_n and_o lust_n behind_o lest_o they_o trouble_v we_o like_o the_o fowl_n which_o hinder_v abraham_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o when_o our_o prayer_n do_v please_v god_n as_o jacobs_n meat_n do_v please_v his_o father_n than_o god_n will_v hear_v our_o prayer_n and_o bless_v we_o as_o his_o father_n bless_v he_o now_o to_o inform_v we_o what_o prayer_n delight_v god_n the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n and_o the_o four_o verse_n shewe_a that_o he_o have_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n teach_v we_o to_o pray_v continual_o this_o he_o expound_v in_o the_o second_o epistle_n to_o the_o thessalonian_o the_o three_o chapter_n and_o the_o thirteen_o verse_n when_o he_o say_v be_v not_o weary_a of_o well_o do_v therefore_o if_o you_o do_v well_o when_o you_o pray_v you_o must_v not_o be_v weary_a of_o pray_v the_o like_a say_n be_v in_o the_o twelve_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n where_o it_o be_v say_v continue_v in_o prayer_n the_o like_a say_n be_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n where_o it_o be_v say_v pray_v at_o all_o time_n the_o like_a say_n also_o be_v in_o the_o eighteen_o chapter_n of_o saint_n luke_n where_o it_o be_v say_v pray_v always_o and_o be_v not_o faint_a we_o be_v not_o command_v to_o preach_v continual_o nor_o yet_o to_o hear_v continual_o nor_o to_o fast_o continual_o nor_o to_o watch_v continual_o nor_o to_o go_v continual_o but_o we_o be_v command_v to_o pray_v continual_o as_o though_o prayer_n be_v more_o needful_a than_o all_o the_o rest_n we_o want_v continual_o and_o we_o be_v tempt_v continual_o and_o we_o sin_n continual_o and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n continual_o that_o god_n will_v supply_v our_o want_n and_o forgive_v our_o sin_n and_o prevent_v our_o temptation_n to_o show_v that_o we_o shall_v pray_v daily_a christ_n teach_v we_o in_o the_o eleven_o chapter_n of_o s._n luke_n to_o say_v give_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n this_o day_n we_o ask_v no_o more_o but_o our_o daily_a bread_n and_o if_o we_o live_v till_o the_o morrow_n than_o we_o ask_v no_o more_o but_o our_o daily_a bread_n so_o the_o word_n daily_o do_v teach_v we_o to_o pray_v daily_o for_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o they_o which_o have_v continual_o need_v of_o god_n shall_v pray_v continual_o unto_o he_o but_o as_o some_o answer_v christ_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o saint_n johns_n gospel_n who_o be_v able_a to_o do_v this_o so_o you_o will_v say_v unto_o i_o who_o be_v able_a to_o pray_v continual_o saint_n paul_n in_o his_o twelve_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n teach_v we_o a_o reasonable_a service_n of_o god_n here_o he_o seem_v to_o enjoin_v we_o a_o unreasonable_a service_n of_o god_n for_o who_o do_v ever_o pray_v continual_o or_o if_o we_o shall_v pray_v continual_o when_o shall_v we_o hear_v or_o preach_v or_o when_o shall_v we_o study_v or_o when_o shall_v we_o work_v so_o one_o service_n seem_v to_o hinder_v all_o service_n but_o indeed_o it_o do_v further_o all_o service_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v command_v to_o pray_v continual_o because_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o without_o prayer_n but_o if_o you_o imagine_v that_o this_o commandment_n be_v break_v if_o your_o lip_n be_v not_o always_o go_v which_o be_v the_o heresy_n of_o the_o messaliant_a or_o if_o you_o dwell_v not_o always_o in_o the_o church_n like_o the_o golden_a candlestick_n than_o you_o be_v out_o of_o paul_n mind_n for_o paul_n do_v not_o pray_v continual_o with_o his_o lip_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v a_o lip-prayer_n neither_o do_v paul_n live_v day_n and_o night_n in_o the_o temple_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v a_o church-prayer_n and_o further_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o appoint_v to_o pray_v at_o all_o time_n for_o they_o have_v set_v time_n of_o prayer_n and_o therefore_o we_o read_v how_o peter_n and_o john_n go_v up_o to_o the_o temple_n at_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n therefore_o to_o pray_v continual_o be_v to_o lift_v up_o our_o heart_n continual_o unto_o god_n 4._o &_o to_o pray_v in_o our_o thought_n as_o moses_n do_v though_o we_o open_v not_o our_o lip_n and_o so_o we_o may_v pray_v continual_o as_o when_o a_o good_a man_n be_v to_o answer_v before_o the_o persecutor_n a_o thought_n pray_v in_o his_o hart_n that_o he_o may_v answer_v wise_o when_o he_o be_v to_o give_v alm_n a_o thought_n pray_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o it_o may_v do_v good_a when_o he_o be_v to_o give_v counsel_n a_o thought_n pray_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o it_o may_v prosper_v when_o he_o be_v to_o hear_v a_o sermon_n a_o thought_n pray_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o may_v be_v edify_v and_o sanctify_v by_o it_o thus_o we_o may_v pray_v and_o hear_v pray_v and_o speak_v pray_v and_o eat_v pray_v &_o study_v pray_v and_o work_v together_o as_o the_o jew_n build_v and_o fight_v together_o and_o therefore_o pray_v seem_v a_o hard_a thing_n than_o it_o be_v for_o if_o it_o have_v be_v irksome_a for_o any_o to_o pray_v paul_n will_v not_o have_v join_v pray_v &_o rejoice_v together_o 47._o it_o be_v not_o hard_a which_o a_o man_n may_v do_v &_o rejoice_v too_o if_o a_o man_n love_v entire_o he_o have_v no_o such_o delight_n as_o to_o talk_v often_o and_o to_o confer_v daily_o with_o he_o who_o he_o love_v for_o by_o this_o his_o love_n be_v increase_v and_o his_o joy_n be_v double_v but_o the_o seldomer_n we_o commune_v together_o by_o little_a &_o little_a our_o affection_n abate_v till_o at_o last_o we_o become_v strange_a one_o to_o the_o other_o as_o though_o we_o have_v never_o be_v acquaint_v even_o so_o our_o affection_n and_o familiarity_n do_v grow_v towards_o god_n by_o often_o pray_v unto_o he_o 10._o and_o when_o we_o leave_v of_o to_o pray_v 164._o than_o our_o affection_n draw_v from_o he_o and_o his_o affection_n from_o we_o therefore_o we_o read_v how_o often_o the_o goodman_n be_v wont_a to_o pray_v in_o time_n past_o daniel_n say_v that_o he_o pray_v thrice_o a_o day_n david_n say_v that_o he_o prai●d_v seven_o time_n a_o day_n it_o be_v say_v that_o cornelius_n pray_v continual_o 2._o
