Lord's Day #52 - Deliver Us From Evil

Lord's Day 52

127. Q. What is the sixth petition?
     A. And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us
     from the evil one. That is: since we are so weak in
     ourselves that we cannot stand a moment, and besides,
     since our sworn enemies, the devil, the world, and
     our own flesh, cease not to assault us, be pleased to
     preserve and strengthen us by the power of thy Holy
     Spirit, that we may not succumb in this spiritual
     warfare but always offer strong resistance, till at
     last we obtain a complete victory.

128. Q. How do you conclude your prayer?
     A. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the
     glory for ever. That is: all this we ask of thee
     because thou, as our King who hast power over all
     things, art both willing and able to give us all
     good, and that thereby not we but Thy holy Name may
     be glorified for ever.

129. Q. What does the word Amen signify?
     A. Amen signifies: it shall truly and surely be; for
     my prayer is more certainly heard of God than I feel
     in my heart that I desire these things of him.
