god_n must_v prove_v successeless_a in_o the_o event_n how_o wise_a how_o cunning_a how_o strong_a soever_o they_o be_v who_o manage_v a_o ill_a cause_n against_o the_o lord_n deliverance_n and_o

right_o honourable_a and_o belove_a how_o shall_v this_o steel_n your_o spirit_n and_o raise_v up_o your_o heart_n and_o make_v you_o with_o jehoshaphat_n lift_v up_o in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n you_o have_v great_a work_n to_o do_v the_o plant_n of_o a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n among_o we_o and_o great_a work_n have_v great_a enemy_n they_o be_v attend_v with_o great_a danger_n and_o oftentimes_o great_a fear_n seize_v upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o moses_n himself_o nothing_o when_o he_o look_v upon_o the_o work_n which_o he_o know_v too_o great_a for_o he_o but_o can_v you_o

your_o help_n in_o the_o name_n of_o this_o god_n who_o have_v make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n set_v you_o your_o heart_n to_o god_n work_n god_n have_v set_v his_o heart_n upon_o you_o to_o deliver_v

have_v you_o be_v at_o your_o wit_n end_n how_o often_o have_v you_o ebb_v and_o flow_v and_o yet_o in_o all_o your_o extremity_n god_n have_v come_v in_o beyond_o your_o expectation_n trust_v still_o in_o this_o god_n seek_v he_o in_o his_o own_o way_n and_o say_v thus_o with_o yourselves_o he_o be_v our_o rock_n our_o fortress_n he_o will_v deliver_v we_o his_o truth_n shall_v be_v our_o shield_n and_o buckler_n yet_o remember_v that_o i_o do_v not_o teach_v you_o that_o you_o can_v never_o be_v leave_v to_o suffer_v in_o a_o good_a cause_n that_o be_v to_o preach_v contrary_a to_o the_o

to_o burnish_v it_o to_o make_v it_o more_o beautiful_a so_o these_o shall_v fall_v to_o try_v they_o and_o to_o purge_v and_o make_v they_o white_a neither_o shall_v it_o be_v so_o long_o as_o

betide_v you_o in_o a_o good_a way_n and_o for_o a_o good_a cause_n your_o suffering_n will_v be_v better_o for_o you_o than_o freedom_n from_o suffering_n they_o shall_v be_v only_o to_o try_v you_o
