That due, which rising from the two former, of Kingdom and power, doth rightly belong unto God, as following upon the concurrence of the other two: for if whatsoever we desire be granted unto us, in that he reigneth powerfully; it is reason that all glory and praise should return unto him again: and it answereth to the first petition, and ought to move us to pray to him, and to assure us that our prayers are granted, seeing that by our prayers duly made and granted, he is glorified. And it is one of the most powerful reasons that the servants of God have grounded their confidence of being heard, that the name of God therein should be glorified.
That due, which rising from the two former, of Kingdome and power, doth rightly belong vnto God, as following vpon the concurrence of the other two: for if whatsoeuer wee desire bee granted vnto vs, in that hee reigneth powerfully; it is reason that all glory and praise should returne vnto him againe: and it answereth to the first petition, and ought to moue vs to pray to him, and to assure vs that our prayers are granted, seeing that by our prayers duely made and granted, he is glorified. And it is one of the most powerfull reasons that the seruants of God haue grounded their confidence of being heard, that the name of God therein should be glorified.
