2. God’s praying prophets have a great interest in heaven, how little soever they have on earth.
3. It is an ill omen to a people when God restrains the spirits of His ministers and people from praying for those condemned.
4. Those that will not regard good ministers’ preaching cannot expect any benefit by their praying. If you will not hear us when we speak from God to you, God will not hear us when we speak to Him for you. (M. Henry, D. D.)
