our_o purpose_n to_o please_v god_n and_o then_o look_v to_o the_o cause_n we_o take_v in_o hand_n cause_n and_o to_o our_o carriage_n in_o that_o cause_n if_o our_o person_n be_v good_a be_v in_o covenant_n and_o the_o cause_n good_a and_o our_o conscience_n good_a and_o our_o carriage_n suitable_a then_o god_n will_v be_v with_o we_o let_v we_o make_v use_n of_o these_o principle_n that_o we_o may_v be_v in_o love_n with_o the_o comfortable_a secure_a condition_n of_o a_o christian_a there_o be_v no_o state_n so_o glorious_a so_o comfortable_a so_o secure_a and_o free_a from_o danger_n if_o we_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o shall_v look_v down_o below_o upon_o all_o snare_n and_o danger_n what_o will_v we_o care_v for_o they_o now_o if_o he_o be_v with_o we_o and_o we_o with_o he_o god_n be_v our_o habitation_n we_o dwell_v in_o the_o secret_a of_o the_o almighty_a 91._o he_o be_v our_o high_a tower_n the_o way_n of_o wisdom_n be_v on_o high_a to_o escape_v the_o snare_n below_o therefore_o let_v we_o raise_v our_o soul_n as_o high_a as_o heaven_n and_o god_n be_v and_o set_v ourselves_o where_o our_o hope_n be_v where_o our_o god_n be_v and_o we_o have_v set_v ourselves_o in_o our_o tower_n that_o we_o have_v set_v god_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o set_v ourselves_o in_o he_o then_o we_o may_v overlook_v the_o devil_n and_o man_n and_o death_n and_o danger_n and_o all_o as_o a_o man_n that_o stand_v upon_o the_o top_n of_o a_o rock_n that_o be_v high_a than_o all_o the_o wave_n he_o overlooke_v they_o and_o see_v they_o break_v themselves_o upon_o the_o rock_n so_o when_o we_o see_v god_n with_o we_o and_o ourselves_o with_o he_o by_o a_o spirit_n o●_n comfort_n we_o can_v overlook_v all_o with_o a_o holy_a defiance_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v here_o who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o what_o can_v separate_v we_o oh_o the_o excellent_a state_n of_o a_o christian_a when_o he_o be_v assure_v of_o his_o condition_n who_o will_v not_o labour_v for_o

a_o double_a fitness_n to_o the_o occasion_n both_o at_o home_n and_o abroad_o if_o god_n be_v with_o we_o who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o god_n be_v at_o home_n in_o 88_o he_o be_v with_o we_o in_o the_o powder-treason_n he_o be_v with_o we_o in_o the_o great_a sickness_n to_o preserve_v we_o and_o to_o give_v we_o our_o life_n for_o a_o prey_n he_o have_v be_v with_o we_o and_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o forget_v this_o but_o upon_o occasion_n of_o this_o great_a deliverance_n to_o call_v all_o former_a deliverance_n to_o mind_n national_a and_o personal_a to_o consider_v how_o often_o god_n have_v give_v we_o our_o life_n and_o how_o oft_o he_o have_v preserve_v we_o from_o death_n and_o to_o take_v occasion_n to_o bless_v god_n for_o all_o at_o once_o and_o so_o to_o make_v some_o special_a use_n of_o these_o meeting_n then_o if_o we_o look_v abroad_o god_n have_v be_v with_o we_o in_o that_o he_o have_v be_v with_o his_o church_n for_o they_o and_o we_o make_v but_o one_o body_n that_o member_n that_o have_v not_o a_o sympathy_n with_o the_o body_n it_o be_v but_o a_o dead_a member_n therefore_o if_o we_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n with_o the_o army_n abroad_o we_o be_v dead_a member_n we_o may_v say_v in_o regard_n of_o these_o outward_a deliverance_n god_n have_v be_v with_o we_o and_o none_o have_v be_v against_o we_o if_o god_n have_v not_o be_v with_o we_o in_o the_o powder-plot_n where_o have_v we_o be_v our_o life_n will_v have_v be_v make_v a_o prey_n that_o that_o will_v have_v be_v do_v will_v have_v be_v more_o than_o the_o blow_v up_o of_o the_o parliament_n they_o will_v have_v blow_v up_o the_o kingdom_n with_o the_o king_n and_o religion_n with_o religious_a person_n and_o the_o state_n with_o statesman_n it_o will_v have_v bring_v a_o confusion_n of_o all_o and_o have_v mould_v all_o after_o a_o idolatrous_a antichristian_a fashion_n it_o will_v have_v overthrow_v the_o state_n and_o person_n and_o all_o the_o issue_n will_v have_v be_v worse_a than_o the_o present_a thing_n and_o therefore_o if_o god_n have_v not_o be_v with_o we_o as_o he_o be_v gracious_o with_o we_o what_o will_v have_v become_v of_o we_o 1●9_n as_o it_o be_v in_o psal._n 129._o if_o god_n have_v not_o be_v with_o we_o they_o have_v make_v we_o a_o prey_n and_o overwhelm_v and_o devour_v we_o all_o there_o have_v be_v no_o hope_n have_v not_o we_o cause_n to_o bless_v god_n and_o to_o be_v thankful_a therefore_o let_v we_o labour_n to_o do_v it_o for_o ourselves_o and_o for_o our_o neighbour_n how_o shall_v we_o show_v
