God has commanded us to pray that we might be prepared to receive from him what he is always ready and willing to confer upon us.

Assurance
None have assurance at all times. As in a walk that is shaded with trees and chequered with light and shadow, some tracks and paths in it are dark and others are sunshine. Such is usually the life of the most assured Christian.
— Ezekiel Hopkins
The Bible
The Bible is the statute-book of God’s Kingdom, wherein is comprised the whole body of the heavenly law, the perfect rules of a holy life, and the sure promises of a glorious one.
— Ezekiel Hopkins
The Gospel and the Law
We find the same rules for our actions, the same duties required, the same sins forbidden in the Gospel as in the law.
— Ezekiel Hopkins
