high_a and_o lofty_a one_o that_o inhabit_v eternity_n who_o name_n be_v holy_a i_o will_v dwell_v in_o the_o high_a and_o holy_a place_n with_o he_o also_o that_o be_v of_o a_o contrite_a and_o

always_o wroth_a for_o the_o spirit_n shall_v fail_v before_o i_o and_o the_o soul_n that_o i_o have_v make_v for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o covetousness_n be_v i_o wroth_a and_o smite_v he_o i_o hide_v i_o and_o be_v wroth_a and_o he_o go_v on_o froward_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o heart_n i_o have_v see_v his_o way_n and_o will_v heal_v he_o i_o will_v lead_v he_o and_o restore_v comfort_n unto_o he_o i_o create_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n peace_n peace_n to_o he_o that_o be_v far_o off_o and_o to_o he_o that_o be_v near_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o i_o will_v heal_v he_o now_o as_o these_o promise_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o comfort_n so_o they_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o comfort_n for_o when_o god_n apply_v they_o to_o a_o wound_a soul_n there_o pass_v a_o virtue_n and_o power_n through_o they_o to_o heal_v and_o cure_v it_o 3._o to_o this_o he_o add_v the_o oil_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o that_o he_o drop_v into_o the_o wound_n and_o this_o do_v not_o only_o heal_v but_o take_v away_o the_o very_a scar_n of_o the_o wound_n and_o render_v the_o skin_n as_o fresh_a and_o beautiful_a as_o before_o oil_n in_o scripture_n set_v out_o joy_n and_o cheerfulness_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o oil_n of_o joy_n and_o esay_n 61.3_o to_o appoint_v unto_o they_o that_o mourn_v in_o zion_n to_o give_v unto_o they_o beauty_n for_o ash_n and_o the_o oil_n of_o

104.15_o and_o oil_n to_o make_v the_o face_n to_o shine_v i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o god_n always_o raise_v the_o comfort_n of_o the_o soul_n thus_o high_a but_o sometime_o he_o do_v not_o only_o heal_v but_o anoint_v and_o make_v the_o soul_n fair_a and_o lovely_a in_o his_o eye_n for_o there_o be_v no_o such_o sight_n in_o god_n eye_n as_o a_o sanctify_a heart_n that_o be_v cheerful_a and_o

great_a horror_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o displeasure_n there_o when_o he_o come_v to_o give_v peace_n and_o comfort_n he_o anoint_v the_o most_o the_o great_a wound_n the_o great_a measure_n of_o comfort_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o many_o a_o soul_n bless_v god_n for_o its_o wound_n because_o else_o it_o will_v never_o have_v attain_v to_o such_o joy_n and_o comfort_n as_o god_n give_v in_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v you_o what_o relief_n flow_v into_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o case_n 4._o in_o case_n that_o the_o animal_n spirit_n fail_v through_o a_o sudden_a passion_n of_o fear_n there_o be_v relief_n for_o it_o and_o that_o four_o way_n 1._o sometime_o god_n prevent_v the_o thing_n fear_v and_o never_o suffer_v it_o to_o come_v to_o pass_v 2._o sometime_o god_n

fear_n 4._o sometime_o god_n turn_v the_o fear_n of_o his_o servant_n into_o the_o right_a channel_n that_o instead_o of_o fear_v evil_a they_o fear_v he_o more_o than_o ever_o they_o do_v first_o sometime_o god_n prevent_v the_o thing_n fear_v and_o never_o suffer_v it_o to_o come_v to_o pass_v or_o at_o least_o not_o at_o that_o time_n we_o be_v afraid_a it_o will_v it_o be_v true_a job_n can_v say_v the_o thing_n which_o i_o fear_v be_v come_v upon_o i_o job_n 3.25_o i_o be_v not_o in_o safety_n neither_o have_v i_o rest_v nor_o be_v i_o quiet_a yet_o trouble_n come_v ay_o but_o many_o a_o good_a man_n have_v cause_n to_o say_v the_o thing_n which_o i_o great_o fear_v be_v not_o come_v upon_o i_o though_o god_n do_v not_o deliver_v i_o from_o my_o distrustful_a fear_n yet_o he_o deliver_v i_o from_o that_o which_o i_o do_v fear_v as_o sometime_o we_o groundless_o expect_v and_o hope_v for_o a_o thing_n that_o never_o come_v so_o sometime_o we_o groundless_o fear_v a_o evil_a that_o never_o come_v as_o god_n deny_v the_o desire_n of_o a_o groundless_a confidence_n in_o great_a mercy_n so_o he_o prevent_v our_o groundless_a fear_n in_o mercy_n for_o as_o wicked_a man_n be_v apt_a to_o fear_v evil_a less_o than_o they_o shall_v so_o the_o godly_a be_v apt_a to_o fear_v evil_a more_o than_o they_o shall_v but_o as_o that_o which_o wicked_a man_n fear_v not_o come_v sudden_o upon_o they_o so_o sometime_o that_o which_o a_o godly_a man_n fear_n come_v not_o at_o all_o this_o make_v david_n say_v psa_n 34.4_o i_o seek_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o hear_v i_o and_o deliver_v i_o from_o all_o my_o fear_n i._n e._n he_o deliver_v i_o from_o the_o evil_n which_o i_o fear_v the_o effect_n be_v here_o put_v for_o the_o cause_n second_o sometime_o the_o lord_n deliver_v a_o good_a man_n from_o the_o fear_n of_o evil_a i_o mean_v from_o a_o distrustful_a distract_n and_o torment_a fear_n which_o dispirit_n he_o and_o sink_v his_o spirit_n as_o some_o fear_n where_o no_o fear_n be_v so_o sometime_o god_n animate_v and_o lift_v up_o the_o soul_n above_o fear_n where_o fear_n be_v true_a faith_n will_v strive_v with_o torment_a fear_n and_o when_o it_o be_v make_v strong_a will_v cast_v they_o out_o there_o be_v a_o excellent_a promise_n for_o this_o job_n 11.14.15_o if_o iniquity_n be_v in_o thy_o hand_n put_v it_o far_o away_o and_o let_v not_o wickedness_n dwell_v in_o thy_o tabernacle_n for_o than_o thou_o shall_v lift_v up_o thy_o face_n without_o spot_n yea_o thou_o shall_v be_v steadfast_a and_o shall_v not_o fear_v note_v out_o that_o when_o faith_n be_v so_o strong_a as_o to_o purify_v the_o heart_n and_o life_n from_o sin_n than_o it_o set_v the_o soul_n free_a from_o the_o fear_n of_o those_o evil_n that_o come_v by_o sin_n now_o this_o be_v a_o great_a relief_n to_o the_o soul_n for_o to_o be_v free_v from_o the_o fear_n of_o evil_a be_v better_a than_o to_o be_v free_v from_o the_o evil_n the_o promise_n run_v not_o thus_o thou_o shall_v be_v free_v from_o evil_a but_o thou_o shall_v be_v free_v from_o the_o fear_n of_o evil_a happiness_n consist_v more_o in_o remove_v inward_a then_o outward_a trouble_n he_o that_o be_v afraid_a of_o evil_n before_o it_o come_v may_v be_v happy_a though_o it_o come_v three_o the_o thing_n fear_v be_v so_o order_v and_o dispose_v by_o the_o lord_n that_o it_o be_v a_o

we_o be_v indeed_o very_o apt_a to_o great_a evil_n and_o lesser_a mercy_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o we_o meet_v with_o evil_n with_o so_o much_o fear_n and_o mercy_n with_o so_o little_a faith_n the_o thought_n of_o one_o evil_a torment_n our_o spirit_n more_o than_o the_o thought_n of_o many_o mercy_n cheer_v and_o comfort_v our_o spirit_n ay_o but_o god_n thought_n be_v above_o our_o thought_n and_o when_o we_o be_v afraid_a that_o the_o evil_a impend_a will_v be_v very_o great_a it_o prove_v very_o little_a it_o be_v with_o many_o christian_n as_o with_o some_o inexperienced_a patient_n they_o dread_v the_o take_n of_o any_o physic_n lest_o it_o shall_v overpower_v nature_n but_o when_o they_o come_v to_o take_v it_o they_o find_v it_o work_v not_o half_a
