What is required unto that Prayer which shall please God, and be heard of him?

That we ask of the only true God, who hatha manifested himself in his Word, all things which he hath commanded to beb asked of him with a true affection and desire of our Heart, and through an inwardc feeling of our need and misery cast our selves down prostrate in the presence of his Divine Majesty, andd build our selves on this sure foundation, that we though unworthy, yet for Christ’s sake aree certainly heard of God, even as he hathf promised us in his Word.
