the_o 12._o to_o the_o rom._n where_o the_o apostle_n recite_v the_o say_n of_o solomon_n proverb_n 25_o if_o thy_o enemy_n hunger_n feed_v he_o if_o he_o thirst_v give_v he_o drink_v for_o in_o so_o

it_o be_v cold_a in_o the_o law_n it_o be_v prohibit_v to_o lay_v the_o frankincense_n upon_o any_o other_o coal_n but_o they_o that_o be_v of_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o signify_v that_o we_o must_v not_o rehearse_v our_o own_o good_a deed_n in_o prayer_n as_o that_o pharise_n do_v luc._n 15_o but_o only_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o christ_n he_o be_v our_o altar_n christ_n we_o must_v give_v thanks_n to_o god_n by_o christ_n by_o he_o we_o must_v offer_v for_o the_o benefit_n receive_v by_o he_o we_o must_v give_v thanks_n and_o make_v mention_n of_o they_o in_o prayer_n for_o the_o increase_n of_o our_o faith_n this_o paul_n teach_v coloss_n 3._o where_o he_o say_v do_v all_o thing_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n give_v thanks_n to_o god_n the_o father_n by_o he_o for_o god_n can_v not_o suffer_v that_o thou_o shall_v glory_v of_o any_o thing_n else_o in_o his_o sight_n which_o he_o declare_v in_o a_o type_n or_o

incense_n take_v other_o fire_n then_o of_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o work_n of_o christ_n only_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n wherefore_o for_o these_o only_o we_o must_v both_o give_v thanks_n and_o rejoice_v in_o prayer_n coal_n the_o petition_n make_v in_o prayer_n signify_v by_o the_o incense_n lay_v on_o the_o burn_a coal_n the_o incense_n signify_v the_o petition_n make_v in_o prayer_n for_o petition_n be_v whereof_o prayer_n consist_v and_o which_o ascend_v unto_o god_n according_a as_o paul_n say_v let_v your_o petition_n be_v show_v unto_o god_n wherein_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v consider_v and_o interpret_v they_o as_o a_o savour_n ascend_v from_o the_o censer_n as_o though_o he_o have_v say_v when_o you_o will_v burn_v incense_n sweet_a and_o acceptable_a unto_o the_o lord_n make_v that_o your_o petition_n be_v show_v unto_o god_n with_o supplication_n and_o give_v of_o thanks_n this_o incense_n and_o this_o savour_n as_o it_o be_v most_o sweet_a unto_o god_n so_o do_v it_o ascend_v straight_o unto_o heaven_n like_o vapour_n of_o smoke_n and_o enter_v even_o unto_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n and_o as_o burn_a coal_n do_v give_v a_o strong_a savour_n and_o make_v it_o ascend_v upward_o so_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n which_o we_o rehearse_v by_o give_v of_o thanks_n and_o whereof_o we_o do_v as_o it_o be_v advertise_v god_n and_o ourselves_o do_v make_v prayer_n steadfast_a and_o bold_a which_o cheerful_o and_o glad_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n without_o which_o true_o prayer_n faint_v be_v cold_a and_o of_o no_o force_n wherefore_o whosoever_o thou_o be_v before_o thou_o pray_v with_o faith_n and_o effectual_o they_o heart_n must_v be_v inflame_v with_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o benefit_n which_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o christ_n but_o perhaps_o some_o man_n will_v demand_v how_o our_o petition_n be_v show_v or_o become_v manifest_a unto_o god_n see_v that_o they_o be_v not_o only_o know_v unto_o he_o before_o we_o pray_v but_o he_o also_o do_v send_v we_o that_o which_o we_o ask_v whereunto_o i_o answer_v the_o apostle_n adjoin_v this_o that_o he_o may_v teach_v of_o what_o sort_n true_a prayer_n ought_v to_o be_v god_n we_o must_v not_o pray_v at_o adventure_n but_o be_v certain_o persuade_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v hear_v of_o god_n to_o wit_n assure_v and_o have_a confidence_n and_o trust_n in_o god_n which_o pass_v not_o away_o into_o the_o wind_n neither_o be_v make_v at_o adventure_n as_o their_o prayer_n be_v which_o pray_v and_o have_v no_o regard_n whether_o god_n hear_v or_o not_o yea_o rather_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v not_o hear_v which_o undouted_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v or_o to_o ask_v of_o god_n but_o to_o tempt_v and_o mock_v god_n for_o if_o any_o man_n do_v desire_v money_n of_o i_o who_o i_o certain_o know_v not_o to_o persuade_v himself_o that_o he_o shall_v receive_v it_o i_o can_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o asker_n of_o who_o i_o may_v assure_v myself_o to_o be_v mock_v how_o much_o more_o be_v god_n offend_v at_o our_o much_o cry_v out_o and_o babble_a when_o we_o do_v continual_o babble_n much_o &_o cry_v out_o &_o do_v not_o think_v at_o all_o whether_o he_o hear_v us._n learn_v therefore_o here_o god_n how_o our_o petition_n be_v show_v unto_o god_n that_o they_o petition_n must_v be_v show_v unto_o god_n that_o be_v that_o thou_o must_v so_o ask_v that_o thou_o doubt_v not_o that_o they_o petition_n be_v know_v and_o accept_v of_o god_n and_o believe_v certain_o that_o thou_o shall_v obtain_v what_o soever_o thou_o do_v ask_v with_o which_o faith_n if_o thou_o be_v endue_v it_o shall_v so_o come_v unto_o thou_o in_o deed_n for_o as_o we_o belteve_v so_o it_o come_v unto_o us._n wherefore_o as_o the_o smoke_n carry_v the_o savour_n upward_o from_o the_o censer_n so_o faith_n carry_v the_o petition_n of_o the_o believer_n into_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o assure_o believe_v that_o our_o petition_n shall_v come_v unto_o god_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v undouted_o obtain_v those_o thing_n that_o we_o ask_v paul_n by_o these_o word_n be_v show_v do_v undouted_o mean_a that_o which_o be_v eftsoon_o in_o the_o psalm_n god_n have_v hear_v my_o petition_n give_v ear_n lord_n unto_o my_o prayer_n and_o such_o like_a hereof_o christ_n speak_v matth_n 21_o and_o mar._n 11._o whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o prayer_n if_o you_o believe_v you_o shall_v receive_v it_o and_o james_n say_v chap._n 1_n ask_v in_o faith_n and_o waver_v not_o for_o he_o that_o waver_v shall_v receive_v nothing_o of_o the_o lord_n who_o may_v not_o now_o hereof_o perceive_v that_o that_o much_o babble_n and_o cry_v out_o which_o be_v make_v common_o through_o the_o world_n in_o monastery_n be_v a_o mock_v and_o delude_v of_o god_n the_o prayer_n of_o these_o if_o they_o may_v be_v call_v prayer_n be_v abundant_o show_v before_o man_n for_o they_o cry_v out_o and_o babble_n too_o much_o but_o there_o be_v no_o regard_n of_o they_o with_o god_n they_o be_v not_o know_v of_o he_o neither_o come_v they_o unto_o his_o ear_n that_o be_v he_o do_v by_o no_o mean_n hear_v they_o for_o that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v or_o be_v assure_v that_o their_o cry_v out_o or_o much_o babble_n be_v hear_v of_o god_n wherefore_o as_o they_o believe_v so_o do_v they_o receive_v it_o be_v time_n therefore_o long_o since_o that_o those_o mockinge_n and_o blasphemy_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v abolish_v but_o if_o we_o pray_v as_o we_o be_v here_o teach_v there_o shall_v be_v nothing_o sure_o which_o we_o may_v not_o obtain_v not_o why_o we_o oftentimes_o pray_v and_o receive_v not_o now_o we_o pray_v for_o many_o thing_n continual_o and_o receive_v nothing_o neither_o be_v it_o any_o marvel_n see_v we_o pray_v so_o that_o our_o petition_n be_v not_o show_v unto_o god_n for_o that_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v manifest_a unto_o he_o wo_n to_o our_o diffidence_n and_o incredulity_n and_o the_o peace_n of_o god_n which_o pass_v all_o understanding_n shall_v preserve_v your_o heart_n and_o mind_n in_o christ_n jesus_n in_o
