Prayer
Matthew 6:5, "And when
thou prayest, thou shalt not

corners of the streets, that
they may be seen of men.
Verily I say unto you, They
have their reward."
Prayer

language, and spake, saying,
Hear the word of the great
king, the king of Assyria: Thus
saith the king, Let not
Hezekiah deceive you: for he
shall not be able to deliver you
out of his hand: Neither let
Hezekiah make you trust in
the LORD, saying, The LORD
will surely deliver us, and this
city shall not be delivered into
the hand of the king of
Assyria."
Prayer
2 Kings 18:33-36, "Hath any of the
gods of the nations delivered at all his
land out of the hand of the king of
Assyria? Where are the gods of
Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the
gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah?
have they delivered Samaria out of
mine hand? Who are they among all
the gods of the countries, that have
delivered their country out of mine
hand, that the LORD should deliver
Jerusalem out of mine hand? But the
people held their peace, and answered
him not a word: for the king's
commandment was, saying, Answer
him not."

received the letter of the hand of the

prayed before the LORD, and said, O
LORD God of Israel, which dwellest
between the cherubims, thou art the God,
even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of
the earth; thou hast made heaven and
earth. LORD, bow down thine ear, and
hear: open, LORD, thine eyes, and see:
and hear the words of Sennacherib, which
hath sent him to reproach the living God."

Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith

hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king
of Assyria I have heard. This is the word
that the LORD hath spoken concerning
him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath
despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn;
the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her
head at thee. Whom hast thou reproached
and blasphemed? and against whom hast
thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine
eyes on high? even against the Holy One of
Israel."
The Answer !

saith the LORD concerning the
king of Assyria, He shall not
come into this city, nor shoot an
arrow there, nor come before it

sake, and for my servant David's
sake."

night, that the angel of

in the morning,
behold, they were all
dead corpses."
The Prayer !
Matthew 6:7-8, "But
when ye pray, use not
vain repetitions, as the
heathen do: for they

heard for their much
speaking. Be not ye

knoweth what things
ye have need of,
before ye ask him."
The Vain Prayer !

said unto the prophets of Baal,
Choose you one bullock for
yourselves, and dress it first; for
ye are many; and call on the
name of your gods, but put no
fire under. And they took the
bullock which was given them,
and they dressed it, and called
on the name of Baal from
morning even until noon,

answered. And they leaped upon
the altar which was made."
The Vain Prayer !

noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry
aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or

peradventure he sleepeth, and must be
awaked. And they cried aloud, and cut
themselves after their manner with knives
and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon
them. And it came to pass, when midday was
past, and they prophesied until the time of
the offering of the evening sacrifice, that
there was neither voice, nor any to answer,
nor any that regarded."

the evening sacrifice, that Elijah
the prophet came near, and said,
LORD God of Abraham, Isaac,
and of Israel, let it be known this
day that thou art God in Israel, and
that I am thy servant, and that I
have done all these things at thy
word. Hear me, O LORD, hear
me, that this people may know
that thou art the LORD God, and
that thou hast turned their heart
back again."

fire of the LORD fell, and
consumed the burnt
sacrifice, and the wood, and
the stones, and the dust, and

in the trench. And when all

sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are passed
away.
