Nehemiah 2:4 Douay-Rheims

Then the king said to me: For what dost thou make request? And I prayed to the God of heaven,

Adam Clarke

1762–1832 Methodist

So I prayed to the God of heaven - Before he dared to prefer his request to the king, he made his prayer to God, that his suit might be acceptable: and this he does by mental prayer. To the spirit of prayer every place is a praying place.
