for_o evermore_o this_o show_v we_o that_o the_o consideration_n of_o our_o mortality_n will_v make_v we_o apply_v our_o heart_n to_o godliness_n therefore_o moses_n think_v of_o his_o death_n run_v

unto_o folly_n and_o pleasure_n and_o all_o voluptuousness_n that_o contrary_a to_o his_o advice_n work_v your_o salvation_n we_o work_v our_o damnation_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o fruit_n which_o

to_o remember_v how_o short_a a_o time_n we_o have_v to_o live_v will_v make_v we_o to_o apply_v our_o heart_n to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a for_o the_o first_o point_n be_v that_o as_o every_o man_n have_v a_o day_n to_o come_v into_o this_o world_n so_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o day_n to_o go_v out_o of_o this_o world_n we_o be_v not_o lodge_v in_o a_o castle_n but_o in_o a_o inn_n where_o

which_o overcom_v all_o thing_n for_o if_o we_o will_v overcome_v our_o lord_n as_o jacob_n do_v we_o must_v overcome_v he_o by_o prayer_n this_o god_n show_v when_o he_o say_v to_o jeremiah_n pray_v

14.6_o for_o this_o cause_n saint_n paul_n pray_v before_o he_o ioyrn_v act_n 20.36_o for_o this_o cause_n the_o israelit_n pray_v before_o they_o fight_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o preacher_n pray_v before_o he_o preach_v it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n to_o preach_v and_o yet_o we_o see_v they_o do_v not_o pray_v i_o to_o preach_v before_o they_o pray_v because_o paul_n plant_v apollo_n water_v but_o god_n give_v increase_v even_o so_o we_o shall_v not_o presume_v to_o exercise_v our_o faith_n nor_o our_o repentance_n nor_o our_o obedience_n without_o prayer_n because_o there_o be_v no_o

no_o repentance_n so_o perfect_a but_o it_o have_v need_n of_o prayer_n to_o continue_v it_o there_o be_v no_o obedience_n so_o perfect_a but_o it_o have_v need_n of_o prayer_n to_o direct_v it_o therefore_o he_o do_v sin_n which_o do_v presume_v to_o do_v any_o good_a work_n without_o prayer_n because_o he_o seem_v to_o do_v it_o by_o his_o own_o power_n for_o that_o he_o crave_v not_o

much_o as_o prayer_n have_v do_v for_o all_o virtue_n have_v have_v their_o power_n from_o prayer_n aman_n can_v pray_v hearty_o when_o wrath_n malice_n or_o lust_n or_o such_o like_a carry_v his_o

his_o mercy_n s._n paul_n in_o his_o 12._o to_o the_o ro._n teach_v we_o a_o reasonable_a service_n to_o god_n but_o here_o he_o seem_v to_o join_v 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 other_o service_n but_o indeed_o it_o do_v further_o all_o other_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 than_o you_o be_v out_o of_o saint_n paul_n mind_n for_o

and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o mean_v a_o church-prayer_n only_o 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 into_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
