in_o danger_n of_o be_v lose_v arg._n 1._o the_o first_o encourage_v argument_n be_v this_o because_o god_n have_v do_v great_a thing_n already_o for_o this_o nation_n and_o i_o argue_v like_o man●a's_n wife_n sure_o say_v she_o to_o her_o husband_n if_o go●●ould_v have_v destroy_v we_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v so_o much_o for_o we_o but_o god_n have_v do_v so_o much_o for_o we_o that_o sure_o he_o will_v not_o now_o forsake_v we_o and_o that_o may_v be_v some_o ground_n of_o hope_n that_o though_o our_o heart_n do_v tremble_v yet_o let_v they_o not_o sink_v within_o we_o second_o another_o encouragement_n of_o hope_n be_v from_o the_o abundance_n of_o pray_v people_n in_o the_o nation_n there_o be_v many_o that_o pray_v to_o god_n night_n and_o day_n that_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v lose_v and_o let_v i_o assure_v you_o one_o thing_n this_o morning_n god_n never_o do_v destroy_v a_o pray_v and_o reform_v people_n when_o god_n intend_v to_o destroy_v a_o nation_n to_o take_v away_o its_o ark_n he_o take_v away_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n from_o that_o people_n where_o god_n continue_v a_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n there_o god_n will_v be_v present_a and_o there_o god_n will_v continue_v his_o ark_n you_o all_o know_v if_o there_o have_v be_v but_o ten_o good_a man_n in_o five_o city_n god_n
