But whilst thou settest others to pray for thee, 1forget not to pray for thy self: If thou settest others to pray for thee, and prayest not thy self, thou art an Hypocrite, and God will account thee as one that mockest, and thou wilt get a ⟨p. 132⟩curse, and not a blessing; wherefore pray, pray constantly, and pray instantly, 2knock hard at the gate of heaven for this grand mercy, and if God open not the first, or second, or twentieth, or the hundred time, yet, with Peter, continue knocking; let God know, as it were, that thou art resolved to take no denial to thy Petition for assurance. This was the greatness of the poor woman of Canaan's Faith, 3she would not be denied.
