from_o those_o word_n and_o the_o power_n we_o may_v note_v sc_n that_o what_o god_n may_v do_v as_o governor_n of_o the_o world_n in_o answer_v prayer_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o supreme_a authority_n that_o he_o have_v strength_n and_o ability_n to_o execute_v and_o perform_v 3_o from_o those_o word_n and_o the_o glory_n observe_v 1_o that_o god_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o one_o of_o his_o title_n of_o honour_n to_o be_v a_o god_n hear_v prayer_n 2_o that_o therefore_o in_o our_o prayer_n as_o well_o as_o in_o any_o other_o part_n of_o divine_a worship_n we_o shall_v principal_o aim_v at_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a argument_n we_o can_v have_v of_o hope_n to_o speed_n when_o our_o design_n be_v rather_o to_o gloririfie_v god_n than_o to_o gratify_v ourselves_o 3_o that_o the_o kingdom_n and_o power_n of_o god_n and_o that_o honour_n which_o do_v redound_v to_o he_o from_o both_o these_o be_v everlasting_a 4_o that_o praise_n shall_v accompany_v prayer_n 5_o that_o whatever_o we_o ask_v of_o god_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o his_o will_n believe_v we_o shall_v receive_v for_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o
