A27628 A solemn perswasion to most earnest prayer for the revival of the work of God bringing forth the kingdom of Christ, whenever it appears declining under his indignation, whether in our own souls, in the nation to which we belong, in the churches of Christ throughout : upon occasion of the late stroke of divine displeasure in the death of the Queen of so blessed remembrance / by T.

out_o and_o destroy_v and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o do_v not_o prove_v a_o end_n of_o god_n work_n but_o as_o you_o find_v in_o hosea_n 2._o 15._o a_o most_o comfortable_a place_n when_o at_o any_o time_n god_n be_v please_v to_o make_v a_o stroke_n upon_o his_o people_n he_o thus_o speak_v i_o will_v give_v she_o her_o vineyard_n from_o thence_o and_o the_o valley_n of_o anchor_n for_o a_o door_n of_o hope_n which_o be_v the_o place_n where_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v discomfit_v and_o where_o god_n seem_v to_o make_v a_o breach_n upon_o they_o i_o will_v give_v it_o she_o for_o a_o door_n of_o hope_n god_n turn_v that_o very_a valley_n of_o anchor_n into_o a_o door_n of_o hope_n so_o when_o god_n seem_v to_o make_v a_o end_n of_o his_o work_n of_o grace_n he_o may_v make_v it_o a_o door_n of_o hope_n so_o god_n make_v a_o breach_n upon_o vzza_n david_n can_v not_o tell_v what_o to_o make_v of_o it_o whether_o he_o will_v establish_v he_o and_o give_v he_o the_o

i_o say_v that_o be_v not_o a_o argument_n that_o god_n will_v put_v a_o end_n to_o his_o intention_n of_o grace_n towards_o david_n and_o his_o family_n though_o he_o make_v so_o dreadful_a a_o

away_o saul_n and_o jonathan_n his_o son_n saul_n kingdom_n be_v undoubted_o a_o type_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n though_o it_o do_v not_o continue_v in_o saul_n person_n and_o

the_o second_o consideration_n by_o way_n of_o consolation_n be_v this_o that_o god_n have_v yet_o and_o do_v yet_o and_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o shall_v trust_v and_o earnest_o pray_v that_o

leave_v we_o a_o nail_n in_o his_o sanctuary_n as_o the_o expression_n be_v a_o nail_n in_o his_o house_n god_n give_v we_o yet_o our_o hope_n by_o such_o a_o nail_n in_o his_o house_n as_o he_o

of_o our_o time_n and_o so_o particular_o to_o this_o eminent_a personage_n that_o god_n have_v late_o remove_v from_o we_o it_o do_v become_v the_o serious_a and_o holy_a servant_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n to_o make_v a_o wise_a and_o a_o prudent_a commemoration_n this_o be_v warrant_v to_o we_o by_o what_o i_o say_v we_o have_v in_o the_o 2_o sam._n 1._o david_n speak_v thus_o the_o beauty_n of_o israel_n be_v slay_v upon_o thy_o high_a place_n how_o be_v the_o mighty_a fall_v tell_v it_o not_o in_o gath_n publish_v it_o not_o in_o the_o street_n of_o askelon_n they_o be_v city_n of_o the_o philistine_n the_o enemy_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n the_o enemy_n of_o israel_n o_o let_v there_o not_o be_v a_o occasion_n for_o they_o to_o triumph_n and_o rejoice_v in_o it_o let_v god_n do_v something_o gracious_o for_o the_o nation_n we_o shall_v earnest_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v do_v some_o gracious_a thing_n for_o the_o nation_n that_o though_o they_o will_v be_v triumph_v and_o rejoice_v and_o make_v great_a mirth_n upon_o it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o god_n may_v laugh_v at_o they_o with_o a_o far_o great_a scorn_n and_o have_v they_o in_o derision_n that_o be_v enemy_n of_o his_o gospel_n and_o of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o if_o any_o person_n who_o they_o think_v and_o do_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o friend_n and_o servant_n to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o a_o enemy_n to_o their_o interest_n that_o be_v of_o another_o kind_n of_o another_o region_n of_o a_o region_n below_o that_o god_n will_v snatch_v their_o triumph_n and_o their_o

may_v make_v a_o wise_a and_o i_o say_v a_o prudent_a record_n of_o any_o person_n of_o eminency_n and_o service_n and_o so_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v upon_o this_o occasion_n by_o this_o example_n of_o david_n upon_o saul_n and_o jonathan_n therefore_o according_a to_o all_o freedom_n of_o apprehension_n and_o expression_n we_o may_v do_v it_o as_o david_n say_v in_o 2_o sam._n 1._o 23._o saul_n and_o jonathan_n they_o be_v lovely_a and_o pleasant_a in_o their_o life_n and_o in_o their_o death_n they_o be_v not_o divide_v jonathan_n undoubted_o be_v a_o excellent_a person_n every_o way_n and_o saul_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o government_n and_o bear_v a_o representation_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v thus_o speak_v of_o by_o david_n though_o otherwise_o scripture_n have_v set_v very_o black_a character_n upon_o he_o so_o we_o may_v say_v the_o king_n and_o the_o qu●en_n be_v lovely_a and_o pleasant_a in_o their_o life_n and_o it_o be_v the_o great_a goodness_n of_o god_n that_o they_o have_v be_v divide_v in_o their_o death_n and_o that_o god_n have_v be_v please_v to_o reserve_n and_o preserve_v the_o king_n and_o that_o he_o will_v still_o preserve_v he_o our_o earnest_a prayer_n shall_v be_v upon_o it_o and_o any_o thing_n of_o mercy_n that_o god_n do_v to_o the_o nation_n by_o those_o that_o he_o have_v set_v in_o so_o eminent_a place_n and_o station_n and_o sovereignty_n over_o it_o we_o shall_v adore_v he_o in_o and_o you_o see_v here_o there_o may_v be_v a_o cover_v of_o imperfection_n you_o see_v that_o david_n cover_v the_o great_a evil_n that_o be_v in_o saul_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o it_o and_o have_v enrol_v it_o in_o the_o book_n of_o jasher_n that_o i_o say_v there_o may_v be_v a_o wise_a and_o a_o prudent_a and_o a_o holy_a commemoration_n and_o much_o more_o when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o eminency_n as_o in_o our_o case_n for_o we_o may_v say_v so_o great_a a_o person_n so_o exemplary_o fear_v god_n aught_o according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o be_v praise_v her_o memory_n to_o be_v bless_v she_o ought_v to_o be_v have_v in_o perpetual_a remembrance_n we_o may_v say_v of_o she_o many_o daughter_n have_v do_v virtuous_o but_o thou_o excelle_v they_o all_o as_o be_v say_v before_o and_o so_o we_o find_v god_n oftentimes_o in_o his_o word_n speak_v of_o his_o servant_n moses_n my_o servant_n be_v dead_a say_v god_n that_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o solemn_a memorial_n of_o moses_n and_o so_o we_o find_v of_o josiah_n jeremiah_n speak_v of_o he_o in_o his_o lamentation_n to_o this_o day_n to_o after_o time_n now_o therefore_o that_o god_n have_v be_v please_v to_o take_v away_o one_o of_o the_o pillar_n though_o as_o it_o be_v the_o left-hand-pillar_n only_o preserve_v

of_o displeasure_n in_o that_o regard_n we_o ought_v to_o consider_v as_o in_o a_o day_n of_o adversity_n use_v ii_o in_o the_o second_o place_n it_o teach_v we_o to_o make_v a_o holy_a and_o a_o wise_a and_o spiritual_a use_n of_o this_o providence_n in_o relation_n to_o ourselves_o 1._o to_o consider_v the_o great_a weakness_n and_o uncertainty_n of_o our_o condition_n here_o 2._o to_o take_v out_o any_o of_o the_o exemplar_n god_n give_v we_o the_o exemplarit_fw-la of_o good_a and_o gracious_a person_n and_o of_o the_o good_a we_o find_v in_o any_o of_o eminency_n and_o in_o that_o eminent_a person_n that_o god_n have_v take_v and_o remove_v from_o the_o nation_n we_o ought_v to_o consider_v wherever_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n of_o worth_n and_o loveliness_n and_o excellency_n in_o any_o of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n and_o any_o that_o have_v be_v instrument_n of_o public_a good_a and_o advantage_n use_v iii_o in_o the_o three_o place_n it_o teach_v we_o to_o be_v apprehensive_a lest_o god_n shall_v have_v still_o in_o reserve_n a_o scourge_n and_o secret_a stroke_n as_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o nation_n you_o see_v we_o do_v know_v what_o a_o day_n and_o much_o less_o what_o a_o week_n month_n or_o year_n may_v bring_v forth_o how_o god_n may_v change_v the_o public_a state_n of_o thing_n within_o such_o a_o time_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o lie_v low_a before_o god_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o earnest_o to_o seek_v he_o and_o then_o use_v iv_o in_o the_o last_o place_n it_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o hope_v in_o the_o
