Praise God—it is *almost* Sunday! In order to help us get ready for church, here is Thomas Watson, from “his Ten Commandments” book. . . .
"We dress our souls on a Sabbath morning by prayer: 'When you pray, enter into your closet,' (Matt 6:6). Prayer sanctifies a Sabbath.“Here are some of the things we should pray for in the morning of the Sab-bath. Let us ask a blessing upon the Word which is to be preached; that it may be a savor of life to us; that by it our minds may be more illuminated, our corruptions more weakened, and our supply of grace more increased.
"Let us pray that God's special presence may be with us, that our hearts may burn within us while God speaks, that we may receive the Word into meek and humble hearts, and that we may submit to it, and bring forth fruit, (James 1:21)."
