On Prayer

| Friday, November 03, 2006

Consider the majesty of God with whom we have to do. He sees how it is with us in prayer, whether we are deeply affected with those things we pray for. "The king came in to see the guests" (Matt. 22:11). So when we go to pray, the King of glory comes in to see in what frame we are. He has a window which looks into our breasts, and if He sees a dead heart, He may turn a deaf ear. Nothing will sooner make God's anger wax hot than a cold prayer. [Thomas Watson]
