First we must consider of the matter of Prayer.
And Secondly of the manner of it.
First for the matter of it, we must look to it that it be according to Gods will, 1 John 5.14. This is the confidence that we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will he heareth us; therefore for the matter we must be sure it must be good that we pray for; it must be for the glory of God; for the good of our selves, and the good of our Brethren.
