honour_n say_v god_n to_o moses_n upon_o pharaoh_n and_o upon_o all_o his_o host_n this_o he_o do_v when_o he_o overthrow_v they_o in_o the_o red_a sea_n in_o so_o surprise_v and_o observable_a a_o manner_n and_o therefore_o he_o often_o put_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n in_o mind_n of_o not_o only_o those_o that_o be_v personal_o preserve_v but_o their_o posterity_n and_o succession_n because_o his_o power_n and_o his_o goodness_n be_v thereby_o know_v to_o all_o the_o neighbour_a nation_n i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o the_o four_o thing_n propose_v to_o inquire_v as_o far_o as_o it_o be_v fit_a for_o we_o upon_o what_o occasion_n and_o at_o what_o season_n it_o may_v be_v proper_a for_o a_o nation_n to_o use_v this_o motive_n in_o their_o address_n to_o god_n we_o ought_v indeed_o to_o honour_n god_n daily_o and_o as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v to_o promote_v his_o honour_n and_o to_o pray_v that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v be_v more_o and_o more_o know_v and_o exalt_v in_o the_o repetition_n of_o his_o praise_n here_o on_o earth_n as_o they_o be_v repeat_v in_o heaven_n by_o saint_n and_o angel_n this_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o our_o saviour_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o pray_v for_o and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n before_o we_o petition_v for_o our_o daily_a bread_n but_o beside_o that_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v our_o daily_a prayer_n and_o endeavour_n there_o be_v some_o especial_a season_n and_o opportunity_n in_o which_o good_a man_n ought_v to_o be_v more_o earnest_n in_o their_o prayer_n and_o more_o industrious_a in_o their_o endeavour_n for_o the_o promote_a and_o vindicate_v the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o i_o think_v i_o may_v name_v these_o two_o first_o when_o the_o existence_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n be_v call_v in_o question_n deny_v by_o some_o and_o expose_v and_o profane_v by_o other_o in_o this_o case_n they_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o worship_n he_o aught_o to_o be_v concern_v and_o humble_o to_o pray_v that_o he_o will_v appear_v signal_o for_o the_o vindication_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o own_o honour_n of_o this_o the_o psalmist_n seem_v sensible_a in_o the_o 119_o psal_n and_o at_o the_o 126_o ver_fw-la it_o be_v time_n for_o thou_o lord_n to_o work_v say_v he_o for_o they_o have_v make_v void_a thy_o law_n to_o work_v that_o be_v to_o work_v some_o extraordinary_a thing_n to_o lay_v to_o his_o hand_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o other_o english_a translation_n as_o if_o there_o be_v need_v to_o put_v to_o more_o strength_n than_o ordinary_a at_o such_o a_o time_n when_o man_n do_v not_o only_o neglect_v the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o that_o have_v be_v usual_a in_o all_o age_n but_o make_v it_o null_n and_o void_a as_o far_o as_o in_o they_o lay_v by_o deny_v its_o authority_n and_o obligation_n now_o beside_o that_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n which_o we_o see_v daily_o with_o our_o eye_n be_v a_o sufficient_a evidence_n of_o the_o almighty_a power_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n there_o be_v some_o surprise_a act_n of_o his_o providence_n that_o many_o time_n make_v a_o more_o sensible_a impression_n upon_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n than_o the_o common_a and_o stand_a effect_n of_o his_o ominipotent_a power_n there_o be_v various_a instance_n by_o which_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n be_v render_v signal_n and_o observable_a in_o the_o world_n but_o in_o none_o so_o much_o as_o in_o the_o event_n of_o war._n in_o this_o god_n be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o arbiter_n it_o be_v a_o appeal_n to_o he_o who_o alone_o have_v right_a and_o

fit_a to_o interpose_v in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n upon_o this_o occasion_n all_o history_n both_o sacred_a and_o profane_a inform_v we_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o uncertain_a in_o the_o view_n of_o man_n than_o the_o issue_n and_o success_n of_o battle_n a_o great_a deal_n depend_v upon_o sudden_a and_o unforeseen_a and_o unavoidable_a accident_n occasion_v many_o time_n by_o

order_v and_o conduct_v by_o his_o providence_n who_o bring_v forth_o the_o cloud_n from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o send_v forth_o lightning_n with_o the_o rain_n and_o bring_v the_o wind_n out_o of_o his_o treasure_n as_o the_o psalmist_n express_v it_o and_o this_o he_o do_v to_o show_v that_o he_o be_v the_o only_a supreme_a potentate_n and_o that_o he_o be_v wonderful_a among_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n so_o than_o if_o the_o battle_n be_v not_o always_o to_o the_o strong_a but_o as_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o he_o who_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o decide_v this_o great_a controversy_n what_o a_o bold_a presumption_n be_v it_o to_o question_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o this_o event_n and_o all_o that_o be_v good_a and_o wise_a aught_o to_o stand_v up_o
