be_v also_o true_a that_o god_n have_v a_o care_n of_o his_o people_n in_o all_o the_o common_a calamity_n that_o ever_o come_v upon_o the_o world_n thus_o it_o it_o be_v when_o god_n come_v to_o

noah_n may_v say_v what_o the_o end_n of_o all_o flesh_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o i_o then_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v when_o all_o flesh_n be_v destroy_v why_o say_v god_n noah_n make_v thou_o a_o

with_o thou_o i_o will_v establish_v my_o covenant_n and_o thou_o shall_v come_v into_o the_o ark_n thou_o and_o thy_o son_n and_o thy_o son_n wife_n with_o thou_o thus_o it_o be_v in_o the_o

of_o egypt_n when_o the_o lord_n send_v his_o plague_n among_o they_o you_o this_o very_a judgement_n of_o the_o plague_n i_o believe_v that_o be_v the_o judgement_n and_o i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o

that_o he_o do_v destroy_v the_o first-born_a of_o egypt_n by_o i_o think_v it_o be_v the_o plague_n and_o that_o that_o confirm_v i_o in_o my_o thought_n of_o it_o be_v that_o amos_n 4.10_o where_o

say_v he_o for_o a_o little_a moment_n until_o my_o indignation_n be_v over-passed_n so_o joel_n 3.16_o he_o shall_v roar_v out_o of_o zion_n etc._n etc._n the_o lord_n will_v work_v for_o his_o

god_n make_v special_a promise_n to_o his_o people_n therefore_o he_o will_v take_v special_a care_n of_o they_o 3._o he_o give_v special_a counsel_n and_o direction_n to_o they_o what_o to_o do_v in_o order_n to_o their_o preservation_n in_o time_n of_o common_a calamity_n there_o be_v three_o part_n of_o counsel_n that_o the_o lord_n give_v to_o his_o people_n in_o such_o season_n and_o he_o direct_v they_o sometime_o to_o one_o of_o these_o thing_n and_o sometime_o to_o another_o according_a as_o he_o think_v good_a in_o himself_o sometime_o he_o call_v his_o people_n out_o of_o the_o place_n that_o shall_v be_v the_o seat_n of_o his_o judgement_n he_o do_v so_o in_o the_o case_n of_o sodom_n and_o it_o be_v worth_a your_o consider_v that_o you_o have_v luk._n 21.20_o 21._o when_o you_o shall_v see_v jerusalem_n compass_v with_o army_n know_v the_o desolation_n thereof_o be_v nigh_o that_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n to_o you_o that_o i_o be_o come_v against_o it_o with_o a_o desolate_v judgement_n well_o what_o then_o must_v be_v do_v let_v they_o that_o be_v in_o judah_n fly_v to_o the_o mountain_n and_o let_v they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o city_n depart_v out_o and_o let_v not_o they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o country_n enter_v thereinto_o this_o be_v his_o counsel_n at_o that_o time_n and_o thus_o god_n do_v sometime_o he_o call_v some_o out_o of_o the_o place_n by_o the_o method_n of_o his_o providence_n he_o tell_v they_o his_o will_n and_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o the_o seat_n of_o his_o judgement_n 2._o he_o call_v all_o in_o all_o time_n in_o order_n to_o preservation_n from_o close_v with_o and_o cleave_v to_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o place_n which_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v and_o for_o which_o he_o judge_v and_o condemn_v that_o one_o know_v text_n

also_o partake_v of_o her_o plague_n sin_n as_o sinner_n do_v and_o you_o must_v expect_v to_o suffer_v as_o they_o do_v 3._o he_o do_v direct_v his_o people_n to_o some_o special_a duty_n that_o have_v a_o especial_a tendency_n to_o preservation_n sometime_o to_o faith_n to_o trust_v in_o and_o dependence_n upon_o the_o lord_n and_o sometime_o to_o prayer_n and_o watchfulness_n as_o here_o in_o my_o text_n to_o some_o such_o special_a duty_n that_o have_v a_o especial_a use_n in_o order_n to_o the_o preservation_n of_o a_o people_n from_o destroy_v and_o ruine_v calamity_n thus_o i_o say_v put_v these_o thing_n together_o what_o god_n have_v do_v what_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o do_v what_o counsel_n he_o give_v unto_o his_o people_n in_o respect_n to_o common_a calamity_n they_o

that_o that_o saint_n shall_v put_v out_o hard_o for_o to_o be_v deliver_v in_o time_n of_o common_a calamity_n i_o shall_v now_o go_v on_o with_o the_o four_o observation_n from_o the_o word_n that_o watchfulness_n and_o prayer_n be_v rare_a preservative_n and_o excellent_a mean_n for_o safety_n in_o the_o time_n of_o common_a calamity_n i_o dare_v not_o say_v they_o be_v never-failing_a mean_n but_o they_o be_v the_o best_a mean_n and_o that_o as_o seldom_o fail_v as_o any_o they_o be_v the_o best_a preservative_n you_o can_v have_v and_o will_v do_v you_o most_o service_n of_o any_o thing_n if_o there_o be_v any_o safety_n to_o be_v have_v it_o be_v in_o the_o use_n of_o these_o mean_n that_o be_v the_o note_n i_o will_v spend_v a_o little_a time_n upon_o the_o god_n of_o all_o our_o mercy_n know_v how_o to_o make_v it_o of_o use_n to_o we_o i_o will_v treat_v a_o little_a distinct_o on_o each_o of_o they_o and_o show_v how_o far_o each_o of_o they_o serve_v to_o this_o design_n what_o part_n prayer_n have_v in_o it_o and_o what_o part_n watchfulness_n i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o viz._n prayer_n and_o in_o what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o that_o i_o shall_v propound_v three_o thing_n to_o be_v treat_v on_o 1._o consider_v a_o little_a what_o prayer_n be_v because_o if_o we_o mistake_v the_o thing_n itself_o we_o be_v out_o in_o the_o whole_a as_o if_o a_o skilful_a physician_n prescribe_v one_o potion_n and_o it_o be_v mistake_v and_o another_o take_v for_o it_o instead_o of_o do_v good_a it_o may_v do_v much_o harm_n therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o know_v what_o prayer_n be_v 2._o consider_v what_o prayer_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v when_o physician_n prescribe_v a_o remedy_n they_o will_v tell_v you_o what_o great_a cure_v such_o medicine_n have_v effect_v and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o what_o prayer_n have_v do_v and_o then_o how_o it_o come_v to_o be_v particular_o useful_a in_o this_o case_n of_o a_o common_a calamity_n for_o the_o first_o then_o what_o be_v prayer_n we_o oft_o speak_v of_o go_v to_o prayer_n but_o what_o be_v pray_v why_o prayer_n it_o may_v be_v thus_o describe_v it_o be_v the_o
