Jeremiah27:18

Ver. 18. Let them make interceſſion to the Lord of hoſts] Let them pray in the Holy Ghoſt, by whom they pretend to be inſpired: Let us ſee, what anſwer. So Elias called upon the Baalites, to call aloud unto their god: and foraſmuch as he heard them not, the people were ſatisfied that they were falſe Prophets: God will fulfil what he hath foretold; but then he looketh that his ſervants ſhould make interceſſion. Elias had foretold Ahab that there ſhould be ſtore of rain after a long drought: but then he went up into Mount Carmel to pray for that rain. I came for thy prayer, ſaid the Angel to Daniel. Gods Prophets are his favourites, and may have any thing of him.
