My hearts desire and prayer is, that Israel may be saved. Carry thy friends to God, and go to God by prayer, and weep over their carnal and unsanctified state. Bring thy dead Husband and child &c. to God, and put up thy Request to God for them, as Abraham did Ishmael. O That they might live before thee! How did the prophet prevail l y his prayers for the restoring the dead child? As the prophet did pray in life into the dead child, so thou shouldest strive with God in prayer for dead souls. If thou didst but wrestle with God for thy dead wife, or child, or neighbour What dost thou know what God might do for them? What knowest thou O man, but thou mayest save thy Wife? &c. Thus we are taught by our Lord in that great petition Thy Kingdom come. Thus if thou strive by the word of God and prayer, then thou mayest be like to prevail mightily for the good of souls, thou dost converse with.
