1. If you will sincerely endeavour in all things to please God, God will give you a gracious return to all your prayers. Oh what a mercy is this for a man to have his prayers answered by God! 1 Joh. 3. 22. Whatever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. Never expect that God should hear any Prayers, if we do not endeavour to do those things that please him.
