A SALUTATION OF MY Endeared Love TO THE FAITHFUL In ALL PLACES That bear their Testimony for the Lord and keep in the Lowliness to Truth as it is in JESUS THe Blessing of the Lord is with you that have given up your all to the Lord as an acceptable Sacrifice and if you keep to that pure unchangable Power that gives dominion over Sin the Lords multiplying Hand will attend you as it did Faithful Abraham and make you a blessing among the people and so you will feel the Lord nearer to you then when you first believed and Truth more pretious to your Souls then ever for your beloved will be yours and you will be his then in the sence of what he hath done for you you will be willing to endure whatsoever the Lord permits to come upon you for the tryall of your Faith Knowing that the tryall of it is more precious then Gold that perisheth and therefore have we great cause to count it all Joy that he hath counted us worthy to suffer for his name for it is those that have fellowship with the Death and Sufferings of our Lord Jesus that come through the great Tribulations and are found worthy to walk with him in white such have Right to eat of the Tree of Life Therefore my dear Friends let us be wholy given up in our Souls and Bodies to serve the Lord Joyfully and willingly for it is the free-will Offerers that God accepts at this day as in Antient Time when the governours and people of Israell Offered themselves willingly the Lord Accepted of them and prospered their undertakings to the Reviving of their hearts which caused them to prayse the Lord and Rehearse his Righteous Acts in the sence of the great deliverance they had Obtained from him alone and then they also called to mind what great thoughts of heart they were once in forthem that staid behind c. who came not forth to the help of the Lord against the wicked but the Lord had no need of the help of man at that day to get himself a name above every name neither hath he in these latter days yet he delights in such Instruments that stand up Valiently for his holy Name on the earth and they shall wax Valient with Spiritual weapons before their faces many shall be much pained for the Lord will rore out of Sion and utter his Voice from his holy Habitation and thou Oh Israel that hast been faithful and kept to thy first Love shalt have a Habitation in him the Rock of Ages and shalt be as a Royal Diadem in the hand of thy God and he delights to appear for thee and in thee because thou hast delighted to appear before him and to wait for him in the way of his Righteous Judgments and Kept them till they were brought forth into victory and though thou art very few in number and least among the Nations and dare not medle with Carnal Weapons yet Great will the Holy one of Israel be in the midst of thee when he marcheth through the Nations to plead with the Heathen round about for thy sake and the Spiritual Battel is already begun in the Nations in which the great and mighty God will plead with all Flesh as in the Vally of Jehoasphat which is the Vally of Judgment for the honour of his great Name and deliverance of his people which is as near to him as the Apple of his Eye Therefore let us be Incouraged in our God as David was when Ziglag was taken and burnt with Fire and the living carried away Captives by the hand of the Spoiler and his Friends that should have stood by him talked of Stoning of him because of the great distress of mind that was on them which came only for the triall of their Faith but great was Davids Faith and Confidence in God and in the same he called upon him in the time of trouble and the Lord heard and Answered and delivered him out of all his Distresses both on the right hand and one the left and all the living that the enemy had carried away captive was recover'd again by the help of the Lord to Praise him neither did he miss any thing for the great Creator of all things was with him and gave him Victory over his enemies and so he divided the Spoil and he is the same to the Faithful this day that have put their trust in him in the midst of difficulties for he is the same to his people as ever he was God Almighty and Unchangeable without Variableness or shadow of turning therefore my dear Friends let us be ingaged to follow the Lord Fully as Joshua and Caleb did that so we may press through all Difficulties and hold out to the end that so we may be Saved for this is my hearty desire to the Lord for my own Soul and all the Faithful that we may be Preserved to the end And so dear Friends keep in true Wachfulness against the enemy that Seeks to defile and hinder the true access to God and watch unto Prayer for the Lord delightes to hear the Prayer of the Faithful and it prevails much with him and it shall reach to Heaven and draw down a blessing in abundance when all Babels-Builders shall be thrown down that have sought to reach Heaven in their vain Imaginations even like Capernaam who was exalted on high till the Lord cast them down to Hell and now the day of the Lord is going over the Nation to break down all Images pleasant Pictures of Religion that are not of his own Appointing and Setting up he will dash them in pieces as a Potters Vessel for he will not give his Honour to any Idol nor his Glory to Graven Images and blessed are all those that have a place in the munition of Rocks while those things are bringing to pass for they shall be glad to go together to the House of God as David was where the Lord does teach his people of his wayes and gives them power to stand still and see his great Salvation brought to pass for their deliverance from all oppression for it is but a very little while and all those that keep to the word of Patience will be delivered out of all Temptation and my Prayer to God is That he will preserve my Soul in Faithfulness among the living in the Heavenly Jerusalem to the End ANd now I have also a deep concern upon my Spirit as a Faithfull Warning to you in all places that have slighted the Assemblies of the Lords People and in so doing have neglected your duty to God both in Private and Publick for I know right well that those that keep their hearts with all diligence to the Lord to feel the Issue of life in the Secrets of the heart dare not neglect their Duty to God in Publick but must come forth in their places and stand as Land-marks that cannot be moved for fear of Man and
