We must likewise pray that God will be reconciled to us, that we may obtain his favour and blessing, and gracious acceptance.

3. That we may have the favour of God, and an interest in his special love. We entreat thy favour, O God, with our whole hearts; be merciful to us according to thy word, for in thy favour is life, yea, thy loving kindness is better than life itself. Ps 119:58; Ps 30:5; Ps 63:3.

Lord, make thy face to shine upon us, and be gracious unto us; Lord, lift up the light of thy countenance upon us, and give us peace. Num 6:25, 26.

Remember us, O Lord, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people. O visit us with thy ~ salvation that we may see the good of thy chosen, and may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, and may glory with thine inheritance. Ps 106:4, 5.

‹ That we may be taken into covenant with God, and admitted… · That we may have the blessing of God. ›

Pray now: a guided prayer in six parts, with the next heads each day.
