again_o and_o make_v we_o see_v clear_a day_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o our_o doubt_n it_o be_v the_o impious_a triumph_n of_o those_o ungodly_a man_n who_o have_v beset_v and_o surround_v david_n 1._o that_o they_o have_v leave_v he_o no_o probable_a way_n to_o escape_v 27.43_o psa_fw-la 3.2_o mat._n 27.43_o many_o there_o be_v say_v he_o that_o say_v to_o my_o soul_n there_o be_v no_o help_n for_o

wicked_a pharisee_n when_o they_o have_v nail_v our_o saviour_n to_o the_o cross_n they_o cut_v he_o yet_o more_o to_o the_o heart_n with_o this_o revile_v speech_n he_o trust_v in_o god_n let_v he_o

do_v as_o our_o saviour_n complain_v break_v his_o heart_n and_o no_o doubt_n pierce_v deep_a into_o his_o soul_n then_o either_o the_o thorn_n or_o spear_n do_v into_o his_o body_n but_o what_o do_v our_o saviour_n what_o do_v david_n in_o that_o extremity_n for_o david_n we_o find_v he_o in_o the_o same_o psalm_n notwithstanding_o all_o this_o appropriate_v god_n unto_o himself_o and_o boast_v of_o he_o as_o his_o shield_n his_o glory_n and_o the_o lifter_n up_o of_o his_o head_n and_o to_o show_v how_o much_o he_o slight_v those_o proud_a boast_n of_o his_o insolent_a enemy_n and_o how_o

psal_n 22.10_o be_v not_o therefore_o far_o from_o i_o for_o trouble_n be_v near_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v time_n of_o deep_a discouragement_n and_o amaze_a distraction_n be_v thy_o time_n therefore_o now_o appear_v vigorous_o when_o thou_o alone_o can_v have_v the_o glory_n when_o a_o creature_n be_v whole_o forsake_v as_o it_o be_v when_o it_o be_v hang_v round_o with_o terror_n and_o even_o faint_v for_o want_n of_o inward_a supply_n and_o succour_v then_o if_o a_o soul_n can_v but_o say_v to_o god_n thou_o be_v the_o lord_n the_o lord_n almighty_a and_o by_o a_o act_n of_o faith_n redouble_v thou_o be_v my_o god_n what_o shall_v it_o fear_v or_o what_o can_v it_o tremble_v at_o for_o if_o god_n be_v for_o we_o who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o the_o world_n have_v not_o

last_o the_o consideration_n of_o god_n omnipotence_n will_v quiet_a and_o pacify_v the_o soul_n under_o its_o affliction_n where_o by_o affliction_n i_o mean_v spiritual_n and_o inward_a grief_n such_o as_o be_v sense_n of_o sin_n fear_v of_o wrath_n dispair_n of_o mercy_n and_o the_o like_a for_o as_o for_o other_o thing_n viz._n want_v poverty_n diego_n grace_n and_o the_o like_o which_o pass_n with_o the_o world_n for_o affliction_n and_o be_v the_o ordinary_a theme_n of_o declaimer_n in_o divinity_n if_o we_o do_v ill_a they_o be_v our_o wage_n as_o due_a to_o we_o as_o hire_v be_v to_o the_o labourer_n if_o we_o do_v well_o they_o be_v mark_n of_o honour_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v triumph_v and_o glory_v in_o as_o our_o choice_a and_o most_o signal_n privilege_n but_o when_o god_n have_v put_v his_o terror_n into_o the_o soul_n when_o he_o appear_v our_o enemy_n and_o by_o a_o immediate_a act_n of_o his_o power_n speak_v dispair_n and_o anguish_n unto_o a_o wound_a conscience_n a_o soul_n in_o that_o case_n have_v no_o possibility_n of_o relief_n but_o what_o it_o can_v gather_v from_o act_v faith_n upon_o god_n omnipotence_n for_o it_o be_v upon_o this_o score_n that_o we_o may_v beg_v for_o pardon_n as_o moses_n do_v for_o the_o israelite_n 14.17_o numb_a 14.17_o and_o now_o let_v the_o power_n of_o my_o lord_n be_v great_a as_o thou_o have_v say_v i_o be_o a_o god_n long-suffering_a therefore_o forgive_v the_o sin_n of_o this_o people_n according_a to_o the_o greatness_n of_o thy_o mercy_n for_o great_a power_n be_v always_o accompany_v with_o great_a mercy_n 35._o psal_n 103_o 1_o 1●_n psalm_n 3_o 35._o for_o such_o a_o one_o will_v consider_v our_o frame_n will_v remember_v that_o we_o be_v but_o dust_n as_o david_n speak_v or_o as_o the_o church_n he_o will_v not_o afflict_v willing_o nor_o grieve_v the_o child_n of_o men._n god_n who_o be_v infinite_a in_o power_n do_v not_o delight_n to_o show_v it_o in_o trouble_v his_o poor_a creature_n who_o always_o lie_v under_o his_o lash_n and_o can_v bear_v with_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o anger_n therefore_o when_o job_n complain_v so_o grievous_o that_o god_n hedge_v up_o his_o way_n with_o affliction_n as_o with_o thorn_n that_o he_o do_v find_v occasion_n against_o he_o and_o count_v he_o for_o his_o enemy_n with_o many_o such_o expression_n as_o the_o bitterness_n of_o his_o soul_n do_v cause_v he_o to_o utter_v elihu_n answer_v he_o in_o god_n stead_n first_o 33.12_o job_n 33.12_o in_o mind_v he_o that_o god_n be_v great_a than_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o reply_v against_o god_n since_o he_o give_v not_o any_o account_n of_o his_o matter_n and_o lest_o this_o answer_n shall_v only_o serve_v to_o keep_v job_n from_o complain_v but_o not_o from_o repine_v lest_o it_o shall_v only_o make_v he_o silence_v his_o discontent_n but_o not_o total_o suppress_v they_o elihu_n reprove_v that_o consideration_n with_o add_v this_o that_o god_n can_v do_v no_o wrong_n and_o the_o almighty_a can_v commit_v iniquity_n 34.10_o job_n 34.10_o the_o force_n of_o which_o reason_n consist_v not_o only_o in_o this_o because_o sovereign_a or_o almighty_a power_n make_v all_o his_o action_n just_o who_o ever_o have_v it_o which_o be_v a_o curious_a &_o a_o unprofitable_a notion_n in_o this_o case_n but_o because_o god_n in_o his_o word_n have_v tie_v himself_o to_o rule_n he_o have_v be_v please_v to_o oblige_v himself_o to_o be_v gracious_a and_o to_o attend_v his_o people_n good_a in_o the_o exercise_n of_o his_o power_n and_o therefore_o in_o stead_n of_o those_o bitter_a complaint_n against_o god_n wherewith_o person_n mouth_n be_v usual_o fill_v in_o such_o case_n let_v they_o rather_o be_v open_v in_o thankfulness_n since_o god_n do_v in_o very_a faithfulness_n correct_v and_o have_v design_n of_o mercy_n when_o he_o plunge_v we_o into_o the_o depth_n of_o misery_n 12.10_o heb._n 12.10_o for_o the_o end_n of_o all_o be_v to_o purge_v out_o our_o sin_n that_o we_o may_v partake_v of_o his_o holiness_n so_o much_o for_o the_o first_o attribute_n viz._n god_n omnipotence_n 2._o second_o the_o other_o attribute_n which_o do_v belong_v to_o god_n as_o he_o be_v a_o spirit_n and_o which_o in_o our_o approach_n to_o he_o be_v most_o to_o be_v reflect_v upon_o by_o we_o be_v his_o omnipresence_n be_v his_o omniscience_n i_o join_v they_o both_o together_o because_o they_o be_v both_o but_o one_o act_n and_o in_o scripture_n language_n be_v never_o several_a in_o which_o to_o see_v and_o to_o
