The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James5:16b

Matthew7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

If all these things are to be had by merely knocking at mercy's door, O my soul, knock hard this morning, and ask large things of thy generous Lord. Leave not the throne of grace till all thy wants have been spread before the Lord, and until by faith thou hast a comfortable prospect that they shall be all supplied. No bashfulness need retard when Jesus invites. No unbelief should hinder when Jesus promises. No cold-heartedness should restrain when such blessings are to be obtained.
