1. Confession. 2. Petition. 3. Thanksgiving. 4. The offering up of all in the Name of Christ.
As for Petition, (which to speak strictly is prayer in that part we present our desires), this is very fully expressed in our Lords Prayer, and in this respect it may well be called a perfect Form. For there is nothing we can rightly desire, but it is reducible to one of these six Petitions, and contained in them, as Conclusions are in their Principles.
