i_o no_o man_n can_v see_v the_o father_n but_o by_o the_o son_n and_o he_o to_o who_o the_o son_n do_v reveal_v he_o and_o then_o he_o tell_v i_o further_o that_o the_o father_n reveal_v the_o son_n

though_o all_o in_o vain_a but_o as_o these_o man_n have_v live_v without_o he_o all_o their_o life_n so_o must_v they_o die_v without_o he_o too_o for_o i_o believe_v he_o will_v scarce_o own_v they_o now_o who_o never_o regard_v he_o before_o but_o yet_o as_o i_o say_v at_o first_o so_o i_o do_v conclude_v there_o be_v comfort_n yea_o abundant_a deal_n of_o comfort_n belong_v to_o thy_o soul_n or_o any_o soul_n in_o thy_o condition_n and_o for_o this_o read_v isaiah_n 41.17_o when_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a seek_v water_n and_o there_o be_v none_o and_o their_o tongue_n fail_v for_o thirst_n i_o the_o lord_n will_v hear_v they_o and_o i_o will_v open_v river_n in_o the_o top_n of_o hill_n and_o fountain_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o valley_n and_o in_o her_o wilderness_n make_v pool_n of_o water_n &_o her_o waste_a place_n spring_n of_o water_n mark_v this_o sweet_a and_o full_a promise_n when_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a seek_v water_n and_o there_o be_v none_o their_o tongue_n cleave_v for_o thirst_n friend_n this_o promise_n be_v to_o thou_o as_o sure_a as_o the_o lord_n live_v and_o such_o as_o thou_o for_o mark_n when_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a seek_v

of_o life_n and_o so_o forth_o well_o thy_o very_a complaint_n do_v argue_v thou_o a_o needy_a soul_n yea_o thou_o see_v the_o need_n of_o christ_n yea_o absolute_a need_n of_o christ_n for_o thou_o see_v thy_o soul_n undo_v without_o he_o and_o this_o need_n of_o christ_n make_v thou_o so_o complain_v after_o christ_n well_o be_v it_o not_o so_o yes_o true_o my_o soul_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v a_o thirst_n as_o david_n speak_v yea_o it_o pant_v for_o christ_n like_o the_o heart_n after_o the_o water_n brooks_n in_o a_o barren_a wilderness_n so_o pant_v my_o soul_n after_o he_o who_o my_o soul_n thirst_v for_o true_o friend_n you_o must_v learn_v to_o believe_v that_o that_o shall_v be_v which_o seem_v most_o unlikely_a to_o be_v so_o do_v abraham_n he_o believe_v in_o hope_n against_o hope_n and_o obtain_v the_o promise_n o_o poor_a complain_v sinner_n believe_v this_o promise_n of_o god_n to_o thy_o soul_n so_o much_o against_o hope_n and_o reason_n i_o say_v believe_v god_n will_v not_o only_o give_v thou_o the_o water_n thou_o desire_v of_o he_o but_o will_v open_v river_n of_o water_n in_o the_o top_n of_o the_o hill_n and_o fountain_n in_o the_o valley_n well_o friend_n you_o see_v here_o be_v god_n promise_n to_o open_v up_o to_o a_o soul_n a_o river_n of_o water_n in_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o hill_n of_o our_o salvation_n therefore_o say_v david_n i_o will_v look_v to_o the_o hill_n from_o whence_o come_v my_o salvation_n or_o i_o will_v open_v river_n in_o the_o top_n of_o the_o hill_n that_o be_v i_o think_v poor_a soul_n that_o be_v as_o far_o from_o any_o spring_n of_o consolation_n as_o top_n of_o hill_n be_v from_o spring_n of_o water_n but_o i_o will_v open_v fountain_n in_o low_a ground_n or_o spirit_n in_o humble_a soul_n that_o be_v the_o valley_n here_o mean_v o_o friend_n believe_v thou_o this_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v open_v fountain_n of_o live_a water_n by_o make_v peace_n or_o joy_n or_o comfort_n flow_v like_o live_a fountain_n in_o thy_o soul_n i_o say_v believe_v this_o promise_n which_o shall_v be_v fulfil_v in_o its_o season_n and_o then_o shall_v thou_o sing_v and_o say_v sing_v you_o waste_v place_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v comfort_v his_o people_n by_o make_v her_o wilderness_n become_v a_o pool_n and_o her_o waste_a land_n spring_v of_o water_n but_o why_o be_v the_o spirit_n compare_v to_o a_o river_n i_o john_n see_v a_o pure_a river_n of_o water_n why_o be_v it_o for_o these_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n i_o think_v first_o reason_n be_v a_o

spirit_n in_o his_o people_n see_v in_o daniel_n in_o who_o they_o will_v have_v stop_v the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n by_o the_o ungodly_a decree_n of_o the_o king_n but_o see_v how_o daniel_n spirit_n

of_o prayer_n but_o o_o these_o man_n be_v drown_v these_o foolish_a man_n be_v carry_v clean_o away_o like_o dry_a leaf_n by_o a_o mighty_a land-flood_n and_o what_o the_o spirit_n be_v in_o prayer_n the_o same_o it_o be_v in_o preach_v to_o a_o strong_a river_n see_v in_o peter_n who_o be_v forbid_v by_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n to_o preach_v christ_n but_o say_v he_o i_o can_v but_o must_v speak_v the_o thing_n of_o christ_n many_o have_v in_o our_o day_n pay_v dear_a for_o their_o boldness_n this_o way_n second_o how_o powerful_a be_v this_o river_n in_o its_o conviction_n when_o it_o run_v in_o a_o way_n of_o discover_v sin_n and_o wrath_n who_o can_v stand_v before_o it_o true_o none_o it_o bear_v down_o young_a and_o old_a strong_a and_o stout_a yea_o oak_n and_o
