"Men ought to pray."

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised.
He ought to keep on praying, just as he keeps on desiring.
Men ought to exercise their bodies daily to be healthy
- So ought they to exercise their souls with God.
- Continue in work if you wish to grow rich in the world's goods.
- Continue in prayer if you would grow rich in faith and grace.
