Three Queries upon three verses of the 46th Psalm Verse 4. THere is a River the Streams whereof shall make glad the City of God the holy Place of the Tabernacles of the most High Query 1. Which is the River and what are the Streams thereof which make glad the City of God And which is the City of God which they make glad Which are the Tabernacles of the most high and which is the holy Place of those Tabernacles O my dear Country-men that every one in this Nation did understand and enjoy these thing For the Lord is ready to beget a Will to beget a Thirst in the hearts of the Children of Men And whosoever thirsteth whosoever will is called to the Waters and may come to the Waters and take of the Water of Life freely Isa 55.1 Rev. 22.17 yea to the full satisfaction of their Souls For indeed this is the Day of God's Power wherein he doth make his people willing to come to him and to abide with him the Fountain of living Waters And those that do come to him and abide with him he abundantly satisfieth with the Fatness of his House and giveth them to drink of the River of his Pleasures Psal 36.8 9.
