we_o see_v how_o we_o must_v make_v our_o advantage_n of_o god_n word_n whereby_o we_o be_v certify_v that_o he_o will_v never_o fail_v we_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n by_o seek_v the_o thing_n in_o he_o which_o he_o protest_v that_o we_o shall_v find_v there_o and_o so_o prayer_n be_v as_o it_o be_v key_n whereby_o too_o come_v too_o the_o treasure_n that_o god_n reserve_v for_o we_o and_o which_o he_o will_v not_o keep_v from_o we_o therefore_o we_o must_v open_v the_o way_n too_o they_o by_o pray_v and_o yet_o saint_n paul_n think_v it_o not_o enough_o too_o say_v that_o our_o faith_n must_v be_v match_v with_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n too_o our_o god_n but_o he_o say_v also_o yea_o all_o prayer_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v that_o in_o all_o matter_n in_o all_o thing_n both_o great_a and_o small_a in_o all_o our_o do_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v that_o must_v be_v our_o sheet-anchor_n for_o it_o may_v happen_v that_o we_o will_v call_v upon_o god_n only_o when_o we_o think_v on_o he_o or_o else_o when_o we_o have_v some_o matter_n of_o importance_n in_o hand_n but_o saint_n paul_n as_o i_o say_v will_v have_v we_o too_o do_v god_n that_o homage_n every_o where_o and_o at_o all_o time_n protest_v that_o we_o can_v have_v any_o good_a but_o at_o his_o hand_n and_o of_o his_o mere_a free_a gift_n so_o much_o import_v the_o word_n all._n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n take_v charge_n of_o our_o whole_a life_n with_o condition_n that_o we_o shall_v seek_v too_o he_o even_o for_o the_o bace_a thing_n and_o for_o such_o as_o we_o dare_v not_o require_v of_o our_o friend_n that_o be_v our_o equal_a and_o companion_n even_o those_o thing_n will_v he_o have_v we_o to_o ask_v of_o he_o for_o under_o this_o say_n that_o he_o give_v we_o our_o daily_a bread_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o comprehend_v all_o that_o belong_v too_o our_o life_n alas_o what_o a_o number_n of_o small_a thing_n have_v we_o need_v of_o which_o we_o will_v be_v ashamed_a too_o be_v acknow_v of_o even_o too_o our_o inferior_n and_o god_n abace_v himself_o so_o far_o that_o he_o vouchsafe_v too_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o person_n which_o be_v but_o wretched_a and_o rot_a carrion_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o too_o stick_v too_o ask_v he_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v expedient_a and_o needful_a for_o we_o sith_o it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o remember_v well_o this_o say_n of_o saint_n paul_n which_o will_v we_o too_o pray_v too_o our_o god_n for_o all_o thing_n that_o we_o deed_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o will_v yield_v so_o far_o unto_o we_o as_o nothing_o shall_v as_o you_o will_v say_v escape_v his_o hand_n and_o he_o say_v express_o that_o we_o must_v pray_v at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o spirit_n whereas_o he_o say_v in_o spirit_n it_o be_v sure_o too_o exclude_v all_o hypocrisy_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o world_n babble_v enough_o when_o they_o shall_v come_v unto_o god_n howbeit_o it_o be_v but_o their_o lip_n or_o the_o tip_n of_o their_o tongue_n that_o do_v their_o duty_n but_o that_o be_v not_o the_o manner_n that_o god_n will_v be_v pray_v unto_o and_o call_v upon_o he_o like_v not_o of_o such_o supplication_n but_o rather_o abhor_v they_o because_o that_o when_o we_o pray_v so_o fond_o unto_o he_o we_o make_v a_o false_a shroud_a sheet_n of_o he_o and_o that_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o treachery_n for_o if_o we_o think_v too_o be_v hear_v of_o god_n for_o our_o babble_n when_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n our_o heart_n be_v dead_a and_o our_o prayer_n proceed_v not_o of_o a_o right_a dispozed_a and_o earnest_a mind_n we_o make_v god_n as_o a_o idol_n or_o as_o a_o little_a babe_n wherein_o we_o do_v too_o great_a wrong_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o to_o be_v short_a we_o
all_o endeavour_n to_o warrant_v our_o call_n and_o election_n by_o good_a and_o godly_a conversation_n and_o so_o shall_v the_o way_n be_v lay_v open_a for_o we_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o

must_v needs_o be_v that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o confound_v like_a as_o if_o some_o prince_n or_o some_o city_n shall_v make_v a_o league_n all_o other_o that_o

here_o too_o bethink_v ourselves_o furthermore_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o be_v short_a witted_a in_o magnify_v god_n grace_n let_v we_o weigh_v well_o this_o word_n which_o s._n paul_n use_v here_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o remembrance_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o may_v forget_v for_o when_o we_o be_v endue_v with_o god_n grace_n and_o it_o have_v please_v he_o too_o give_v we_o some_o good_a

we_o must_v not_o do_v so_o but_o when_o we_o see_v the_o mischief_n feed_v and_o increase_v by_o our_o unfaithfulness_n let_v we_o provide_v for_o it_o and_o let_v every_o man_n be_v compel_v too_o
