The work is divided into four sermons, as it was originally published. They contain two foundational practical pillars of the Christian faith, and precisely show the work of saving repentance and the godly exercise of prayer explained in light of God's presence, God's blessing, and God's provision.Brownrig's first sermon is on Joel 2:14, "Who knows if he will return and repent and leave a blessing behind him, even a meat-offering and a drink-offering unto the Lord our God?" He explains how the presence of God is found among a repentant people, or lost to a hypocritical people.His second sermon is on Psalm 78:34-37, a psalm of remembrance on "God our Rock", where he shows how true repentance works, and differs from the deficiency of illegitimate repentance. His third sermon comprises the blessing and exercise of godly prayer, on Luke 11:13, "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?" God is the Christian's Father, and in prayer Christ not only accepts, fulfils, and grants our requests, but when we ask amiss, he chooses to reward us with his best intentions for our good. The fourth sermon is from Luke 22:31-32, "And the Lord said, 'Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat..." Here he explains the seasonable and gracious prediction by Christ of a great, coming temptation by Satan, and how Satan is thwarted by the sovereignty and providence of God. He shows how God uses temptations for the improvement of the saint's welfare, and demonstrates how Christ keeps and preserves his church from finally falling away, or being overcome totally by the devil.
