Burroughs says that the second of the three strengths with which the believer ought to carry out their duties of worship is strength of the affections. "So when we come to the living God, we must have living affections, our affections, and that will be the way to cure vain thoughts" (99).
Early Rachel asked about joy in worship:

And perhaps this where Burroughs is addressing this issue. Yet he never really tells how we go about raising our affections practically.
My question is this: How do we labor to use all the strength of our affections in the duties of worship?
