An upright heart ▪ 1is a heart careful of all duty, and desirous to correspond all circumstances in duty; Integrity and uprightness, shows it self by yielding universal Obedience to all Gods revealed Will, 1 King 9 4. It makes a man studious and careful to approve himself upright towards God, and towards man in all things, Act. 24.16. It makes a man very desirous to know, what God would have done, and how he would have it done: The upright heart saith as Paul, Lord, What wilt thou have me to do? And with Manoah, entreats the Lord to show him, how he would have him to do it, Let the Angel come again and teach us, what we shall do unto the child that shall be born, said Manoah to the Lord, when his wife told him, what tidings the Angel of the Lord had brought her a of son; and not only so, but inquires farther, how he should do it, How shall we order the Child, and how shall we do unto him? said he, Judg. 13. ver. 8, 12. And it is the property of an upright heart, to desire to know Gods Will, and to do Gods Will, as he would have it done,2 and so as it may be accepted of him; I will worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, saith an upright heart, I will seek the Lord, and I will do it early, in the morning will I direct my prayer unto ⟨p. 116⟩thee, and will observe what becomes of it, saith an upright man.
