us of a truth and walk all circumspectly not as fools but as wise for Wisdom is better then strength In the Eternal Light of the Son of God have I seen spies sent from far to behold your strength and plottings among many how to invade you and enter into your fenced City that hath Salvation for its Wall great courage hath the enemy taken to invade you because they see not your strength but I have seen them as driven stubble before you as the wind scattereth the chaff so the breath of the Lord scattereth them never more to come together But first must you suffer many things by this Generation whom God hath raised up for that end that your utmost strength may be tryed the tryal of which will be much more precious then Gold to all them who are found faithful in that day which now approacheth near where in the whole strength of Antichrist shall appear and his last engagement very great and subtile such as was not yet known But the day is the Lords and the conquest is by him alone for his is the Kingdom the Power and the Glory for evermore Then shall Judgement be given to the Saints and the Antient of dayes shall sit upon the wicked and they shall eat the fruit of their doings but the Lord shall be unto his Saints and Servants an everlasting Light and the dayes of their mourning shall come to an end So all dear Brethren and Sisters be strong in the Lord and in the Power of his Might and put on the whole Armour of God and give no place to the enemy in the particular nor in the general let not the Multitude of Pharaohs host make you afraid nor the strength of Antichrist cause you to fly for though they turn against you one way they shall fly before you seven wayes and though they flourish as a green Bay tree Winter Summer yet in a moment shall they be consumed from the Earth and their glory be turned into everlasting contempt the mouth of the Lord of Hosts hath spoken it And all dear hearts who are convinced of the Eternal truth and are not yet come to feel deliverance from the bondage of Corruption but sees your enemies many within and without and are as it were between hope and fear trust you perfectly in the Name of the Lord by which you are called that you may see him your Wall in the time of storm for many will the assaults of the enemy be to draw you back again into Egypt and many dangers will he set before you that he may overthrow your faith and patience and he will seek by all means to vaile that which should let you see the Lords strength and then will he bring in weakness and fears upon you and cause you to stumble and stagger at the promises which are yea and Amen to the seed of God in you for he will sift you as wheat and fan you in the wind of his wrath but the Lord will be with you in all these things who will not suffer your feet to be moved but will be a present help to all you who trusteth perfectly in his Name by which you are called And though he may suffer the wicked to triumph for a time and to incompass his heritage as a flood yet their root sh●ll soon become rotten and their blossom shall fly up as the dust for Gods controversie is nigh to be Sealed against them never more to be revoked who have hardned their hearts and stifned their necks against his Government and they that will not that he should now rule over them must now be slain by the word of his mouth Therefore dearly beloved be not soon moved from the hope of the Gospel in Christ Jesus but remain stedfast in him that your strength by him may be renewed and be kindly affectionated one to another and bear one another burthens that so you may be strengthened one in another and be refreshed one by another that so the Eternal Name of God by which you are called may be Adorned by you and in you for God hath not called you to wrath but to obtain Salvation thorow his Son Jesus Christ who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords to whom be Glory an● Immortality for ever and ever Amen Again all you plants of the Lord God who are Rooted in the Truth wait upon the Lord that you may grow in the same and let your moderation be known unto all men For the Lord hath a Glorious work to accomplish through you which few yet understands and for that end is he now fitting you for himself and giving you a heart to do his will that he may abide with you for ever for he hath chosen you for his Portion and for his peculiar Treasure Oh therefore be you Zealous for his Name and his Truth upon the Earth and walk circumspectly not as fools but as wise ●edeeming the time because the days are evil not in chambering wantonness not in strife and envy but in truth and sincerity be ye patterns one to another in the way of life that you may increase your strength in him who hath all Power in his hand who assuredly will now make a short work in the Earth for his ●lect sake which hath long cryed How long Lord holy and true c. for this hath he remembred in the multitude of his mercies and nothing shall be able to hinder him from relieving of it for it is his own and his delight is in it and he will rebuke oppressors of it and chasten them with his Iron Rod and break them to pieces as a Potters vessel and none shall be able to rescue them out of his hand for he is jealous of his honour and his renown will he not give to another his Name shall be great in the Earth and his truth among the sons of men his glory is appearing as the morning without Clouds and his brightness is going forth as the Noon-day the whole Earth shall be filled with his glory and the ends thereof shall look unto to him for Salvation which he is now accomplishing for all who truly wait upon him they shall say the Lord is our God alone our strength alone our deliverer alone our Rock our refuge and there is none besides him in Heaven or Earth that is able to save or destroy the Kingdom is his the power is his and the glory his for evermore Then shall the Lord be known to be one his Name one and all the Gods of the Heathen shall be famished and the Idols of the World shall come into everlasting contempt and perpetual shame which shall never be blotted out and the living God shall be the God of the whole Earth and all Nations shall flow unto him then shall a little Child play upon the hole of an Asp and the weaned Child shall put his hand in the Cockatrice Den without any harm for the destroyer shall be
