i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o have_v i_o to_o expect_v miracle_n at_o god_n hand_n to_o tempt_v he_o 1._o you_o must_v remember_v ahaz_n his_o case_n when_o god_n come_v to_o ahaz_n and_o tell_v he_o by_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n 7._o isai._n chap._n 7._o that_o aram_n and_o remaliah_n son_n those_o two_o smoke_a firebrand_n shall_v not_o have_v their_o will_n shall_v be_v disappoint_v that_o he_o

provide_v a_o army_n i_o will_v not_o tempt_v god_n that_o be_v i_o will_v not_o go_v about_o it_o without_o mean_n i_o will_v look_v about_o i_o and_o for_o such_o a_o sign_n as_o rest_v on_o that_o

though_o there_o be_v not_o miracle_n yet_o god_n he_o work_v wonder_n now_o a_o day_n as_o well_o as_o then_o his_o hand_n be_v not_o shorten_v now_o he_o be_v the_o same_o god_n he_o be_v as_o powerful_a as_o he_o be_v it_o be_v true_a now_o as_o it_o be_v in_o david_n time_n that_o wonderful_a be_v thy_o work_n and_o christ_n now_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n his_o name_n be_v wonderful_a in_o isai._n 9_o 9_o the_o government_n be_v upon_o his_o shoulder_n and_o his_o name_n shall_v be_v call_v wonderful_a that_o be_v in_o the_o government_n of_o his_o church_n he_o do_v wonderful_a thing_n that_o be_v when_o a_o thing_n seem_v to_o be_v never_o so_o strong_a and_o well_o build_v when_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o enemy_n seem_v to_o be_v never_o so_o great_a and_o invincible_a he_o be_v wonderful_a to_o disappoint_v they_o again_o when_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o church_n seem_v to_o be_v little_a he_o can_v make_v that_o effectual_a to_o do_v great_a matter_n it_o shall_v do_v wonder_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v god_n be_v able_a to_o do_v wonderful_a thing_n now_o now_o those_o very_a thing_n which_o seem_v wonder_n to_o man_n be_v not_o miracle_n though_o they_o may_v be_v great_a work_n that_o wonder_n that_o elisha_n say_v that_o the_o next_o day_n thing_n shall_v be_v so_o cheap_a you_o see_v that_o be_v reckon_v so_o great_a a_o matter_n yet_o it_o be_v do_v after_o a_o ordinary_a manner_n there_o be_v but_o a_o false_a fear_n scatter_v in_o the_o army_n and_o it_o be_v do_v therefore_o he_o that_o work_v wonder_n he_o can_v do_v the_o same_o now_o that_o deliverance_n which_o the_o jew_n have_v it_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v do_v now_o so_o those_o wonder_n those_o great_a act_n which_o god_n do_v when_o man_n trust_v in_o he_o they_o be_v thing_n which_o he_o do_v daily_o now_o therefore_o to_o answer_v punctual_o because_o man_n do_v deceive_v themselves_o in_o that_o when_o we_o exhort_v they_o to_o trust_v in_o god_n they_o say_v still_o we_o must_v use_v the_o mean_n i_o will_v give_v a_o threefold_a answer_n to_o it_o 2._o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n use_v mean_n but_o they_o be_v mean_n of_o his_o own_o provide_v part_n and_o not_o the_o mean_n many_o time_n that_o thou_o pitche_v upon_o for_o thus_o far_o it_o be_v true_a god_n do_v it_o not_o but_o by_o mean_n that_o be_v he_o do_v thing_n by_o second_o cause_n he_o do_v they_o not_o by_o a_o immediate_a hand_n of_o his_o own_o though_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o but_o now_o what_o those_o cause_n be_v thou_o know_v not_o therefore_o this_o set_v down_o that_o god_n do_v it_o by_o mean_n of_o his_o own_o and_o not_o by_o those_o mean_n thou_o see_v it_o may_v be_v thou_o pitche_v upon_o some_o particular_a mean_n and_o think_v sure_o it_o must_v be_v do_v by_o this_o and_o because_o thou_o see_v no_o other_o thou_o think_v if_o that_o fail_v all_o be_v spoil_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o god_n will_v not_o do_v it_o by_o these_o but_o god_n be_v so_o far_o from_o do_v it_o that_o his_o usual_a course_n be_v when_o man_n have_v pitch_v upon_o particular_a mean_n and_o think_v sure_o the_o business_n must_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v by_o this_o or_o else_o all_o will_v fail_v god_n many_o time_n use_v not_o that_o but_o a_o mean_n which_o thou_o never_o think_v of_o in_o such_o a_o case_n it_o fare_v with_o we_o as_o it_o do_v with_o naaman_n the_o assyrian_a when_o he_o come_v to_o the_o prophet_n of_o god_n he_o think_v beforehand_o that_o the_o prophet_n will_v have_v speak_v some_o word_n and_o have_v heal_v he_o but_o he_o bid_v he_o go_v and_o wash_v which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o he_o never_o think_v of_o so_o thou_o many_o time_n think_v of_o these_o mean_n thou_o preconceive_v thing_n in_o thy_o own_o heart_n thou_o think_v thou_o be_v right_a thou_o think_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v do_v this_o way_n thou_o see_v no_o other_o mean_n but_o it_o may_v be_v god_n will_v not_o do_v it_o this_o way_n but_o he_o will_v do_v it_o a_o way_n that_o thou_o think_v not_o of_o so_o joseph_n when_o he_o be_v in_o favour_n with_o pharaoh_n his_o steward_n one_o will_v think_v that_o this_o shall_v have_v be_v the_o mean_n of_o josephs_n advancement_n and_o of_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o promise_n but_o this_o be_v not_o the_o mean_n that_o god_n use_v again_o when_o that_o pharaoh_n his_o chief_a butler_n be_v deliver_v one_o will_v think_v that_o that_o shall_v have_v be_v the_o mean_n to_o have_v wrought_v his_o exaltation_n but_o yet_o these_o be_v not_o there_o fall_v a_o mean_n that_o joseph_n think_v not_o on_o and_o so_o god_n do_v daily_o many_o time_n the_o thing_n that_o we_o most_o trust_v unto_o and_o put_v most_o confidence_n in_o do_v fail_v and_o deceive_v we_o god_n dash_v in_o piece_n such_o mean_n and_o use_v other_o mean_n to_o help_v that_o never_o come_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o think_v of_o do_v we_o not_o see_v it_o oftentimes_o again_o that_o mean_n which_o we_o think_v will_v not_o do_v oftentimes_o do_v it_o therefore_o say_v not_o i_o trust_v in_o god_n that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o by_o mean_n for_o god_n delight_v to_o do_v it_o by_o mean_n man_n be_v ready_a to_o say_v oh_o if_o have_v such_o a_o physician_n or_o if_o i_o have_v such_o air_n or_o such_o mean_n i_o shall_v do_v well_o enough_o how_o do_v thou_o know_v that_o it_o may_v be_v god_n will_v not_o use_v that_o so_o those_o that_o be_v in_o distress_n oh_o if_o i_o have_v such_o a_o man_n to_o comfort_v i_o why_o thou_o know_v not_o whether_o that_o be_v the_o mean_n that_o god_n will_v use_v or_o no._n therefore_o say_v not_o because_o i_o see_v not_o mean_n therefore_o i_o will_v not_o trust_v in_o god._n i_o say_v god_n will_v do_v it_o by_o mean_n but_o he_o use_v mean_n of_o his_o own_o provide_v and_o not_o of_o thy_o seek_n this_o be_v the_o first_o answer_n
