hand_n in_o perform_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n say_v david_n be_v pure_a word_n 6._o as_o silver_n try_v in_o the_o fire_n purify_v seven_o time_n seven_o be_v a_o number_n of_o perfection_n

this_o reason_n it_o be_v say_v not_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lip_n but_o the_o fruit_n to_o intimate_v that_o his_o word_n like_o fruit_n spring_n from_o the_o root_n of_o his_o heart_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o leaf_n but_o fruit_n real_a performance_n it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o man_n ofttimes_o their_o lip_n have_v leaf_n but_o no_o fruit_n or_o their_o fruit_n be_v like_o the_o apple_n of_o sodom_n for_o as_o those_o be_v fair_a to_o the_o eye_n but_o mold_a in_o the_o handle_n so_o most_o man_n promise_n be_v please_v to_o the_o ear_n but_o wither_v in_o the_o hand_n which_o

shall_v pass_v away_o ●5_n but_o his_o word_n shall_v not_o pass_v away_o and_o therefore_o in_o all_o condition_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o feed_v upon_o the_o fruit_n of_o god_n lip_n lay_v hold_v upon_o his_o promise_n which_o be_v pabulum_fw-la fidei_fw-la the_o food_n of_o our_o faith_n solomon_n say_v of_o the_o lip_n of_o the_o righteous_a that_o they_o feed_v many_o it_o be_v most_o true_a of_o the_o righteous_a god_n who_o promise_n afford_v sound_a nutriment_n it_o be_v very_o observable_a that_o the_o author_n to_o the_o hebrew_n mention_v the_o accomplishment_n of_o that_o

of_o the_o lip_n will_v appear_v in_o that_o the_o lip_n be_v of_o great_a use_n in_o both_o when_o we_o pray_v we_o must_v take_v with_o we_o word_n and_o say_v and_o when_o we_o praise_v 3._o we_o

prayer_n be_v often_o style_v a_o call_n upon_o god_n and_o upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o more_o especial_o be_v the_o lip_n necessary_a in_o praise_v since_o our_o praise_v god_n be_v only_o a_o confession_n of_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o we_o and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v by_o the_o mouth_n for_o which_o reason_n the_o psalmist_n call_v his_o tongue_n his_o glory_n because_o the_o chief_a instrument_n of_o offer_v praise_n whereby_o god_n be_v glorify_v indeed_o neither_o our_o prayer_n nor_o praise_n must_v be_v only_o the_o fruit_n of_o our_o lip_n but_o of_o our_o heart_n also_o otherwise_o we_o be_v but_o as_o tinkle_a brass_n and_o sound_a cymbal_n ●3_n prayer_n be_v often_o call_v the_o pour_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n ●l_n and_o lift_v up_o of_o the_o

calf_n of_o our_o lip_n 8._o but_o still_o the_o lip_n be_v the_o most_o proper_a instrument_n of_o express_v both_o our_o supplication_n and_o gratulation_n 41._o and_o therefore_o both_o apt_o call_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n and_o now_o according_a to_o these_o acception_n 1._o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n be_v to_o be_v look_v upon_o either_o as_o a_o antecedent_n or_o the_o

the_o matter_n of_o their_o earnest_a prayer_n if_o you_o peruse_v the_o thirty_o six_o chapter_n of_o ezekiel_n prophecy_n 37._o you_o shall_v find_v a_o catalogue_n of_o many_o precious_a benefit_n which_o god_n will_v do_v for_o his_o people_n but_o in_o the_o close_a thus_o say_v the_o lord_n god_n i_o will_v yet_o for_o this_o be_v inquire_v of_o by_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n prayer_n be_v

pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o present_o after_o he_o practise_v it_o when_o he_o say_v peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n he_o will_v do_v little_a for_o zion_n peace_n who_o

fruit_n of_o our_o hand_n in_o endeavour_n but_o chief_o the_o fruit_n of_o our_o lip_n in_o prayer_n 2._o i_o create_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n that_o be_v the_o peace_n which_o god_n shall_v

praise_n 3._o call_v by_o the_o apostle_n the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n though_o his_o allusion_n there_o be_v not_o to_o this_o but_o that_o of_o the_o prophet_n hosea_n 3._o the_o calf_n which_o
