2 Bym Davids Prayer was Achitophels wisdom turned into foolishness. Byn Jaakobs Prayer was Esau's wrath allayed. Byo Mordecai's & Esthers Prayer was Hamans malice like Sauls sword, turned into his own bowels. Byp Hezekiahs Prayer was the whole host of Sennacherib overthrown. One faithful mans prayer is more forcible than the power of a whole army:q witness the example of Moses, who lift up his hand while Israel fought against Amalek.
