But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. (Matthew 6:6) 1/ When we are to pray - "When thou prayest" . 2/ Where we are to pray - "Enter into thy closet" . 3/ To whom we are to pray - "Thy Father which is in secret" . 4/ Who hears our prayers - "Thy Father which seeth in secret" . 5/ Who answers prayer - "Thy Father shall ". This sermon was preached at Clifton Strict Baptist Chapel on the eve of the 80th Anniversary of VE Day 8 May 1945
