God does hear and answer prayer even when we do , "'t understand the mysteries of delay. !’ The Urgent Prayer of a Widow i . v 2-8). .’ he picture here is of a helpless widow who was being cheated out of | her property rights, coming to a godless judge for redress. Her only ineftns of getting help was to prove the i Justice of her claim by her persistence. Even this did not gain access to his heart, for he feared not God nor regarded men. He complied with her request In order to get rid of her. The point here is not that God is like this unjust judge and can be teased into compliance, but rather that if such action can lie secured on the part of a godless judge by persistence, how . much surer will be the help of God to those who cry unto Him day and. night. The helpless widow pictures the| church in this age suffering the deprivation of her rights. It is not the ; church praying for vengeance upon . tier enemies, but suing for the pos- ! session of her rights by virtue of her covenant relation in Christ. The Inherltance of the church will be actual-, ; zed at the coming of Christ. 'This is why the truth concerning the comi ing of Christ is so vital to Christianity. and why such disastrous conse--1 qnences follow the loss of the Blessed I Hope. ' The apparent delay in the vindica tion of the church may dishearten some and cause others to mock (II Peter 3:4). Jesus’ question should be a solemn warning against allowing the apparent delay of the coming of the Lord to crowd out our praying. Though many may give up we should be assured that genuine faith will abide, and that the divine promise concerning the coming of Christ shall be fulfilled. We can be'sure of God. 111. Ths Prayer of the Proud Pharisee (vv. ’9-12). 1. He Took a Striking Attitude (v. 11). The Jewish custom was to stand while praying, but the word “stood” implies the assumption of an ostentatious position. He was selfrighteous and trusted in himself. 2. He Prayed With Himself (vv. 11. 12). He used the name of God, but it was really a soliloquy. He pretended to be thanking God when really he was rehearsing his own goodness—complimenting himself. His whole thought centered in himself. He congratulated himself for (1) his morality (vv. 11).' He thanked God that he was not as other men are. such as extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or oven as the publican who was standing afar off. (2) His Religious Merits (v 12). He fasted twice u week and gave tithes of all ho possessed. He thus informed God that he did more than was required, implying that God was under obligation to him. IV. Tha Prayer of the Humble Publican (v. 13)In striking contrast with this supposed saint stood the publican whose shame kept him from even looking I up to Heaven, beating upon his breast as a sign of anguish of soul, crying opt to God to be merciful to him, a sinner. He took his place as a sinner and called upon God for mercy. V. Christ’s Testimony (v. 14). He declared that Jbe publican went away justified rather than the Pharisee. The one great and urgent need on the part of men Is a confession of sin and a willingness to cry unto God for mercy. The Dull Man. A dull man Is so near a dead man that he is hardly to be ranked In the list of the living; and as he Is not to he buried whilst half alive, so he is as little to be employed whilst he Is half dead.—Saville.
