Chapter 37 — Part IV: Prayer — The Third Petition: Thy Will Be Done on Earth as It Is in Heaven
Section 20. We Ask That We May Not Yield To Our Own Inordinate Desires — In the second place, when we say, Thy will be done, we express our detestation of the works of the flesh, of which the Apostle writes: The works of the flesh are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness immodesty, lust, etc.; if you live according to the flesh you shall die. We also beg of God not to suffer us to yield to the suggestions of sensual appetite, of our lusts, of our infirmities, but to govern our will by His will.
