in_o human_a appearance_n whereas_o their_o enemy_n be_v powerful_a and_o formidable_a in_o the_o esteem_n of_o the_o world_n beside_o god_n call_v his_o people_n man_n of_o israel_n or_o israel_n that_o be_v but_o men._n israel_n you_o know_v my_o brethren_n be_v the_o name_n god_n himself_o give_v jacob_n when_o he_o contend_v with_o he_o this_o holy_a man_n hear_v his_o brother_n esau_n be_v come_v out_o against_o he_o with_o four_o hundred_o man_n be_v put_v into_o a_o great_a consternation_n therefore_o he_o pass_v the_o whole_a night_n in_o supplication_n and_o tear_n as_o he_o be_v alone_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o shape_n of_o man_n strive_v with_o he_o till_o break_v of_o day_n and_o when_o this_o divine_a person_n see_v that_o he_o can_v not_o prevail_v against_o he_o he_o touch_v the_o hollow_a of_o his_o thigh_n so_o that_o the_o hollow_a of_o jacob_n thigh_n be_v out_o of_o joint_a as_o he_o wrestle_v with_o he_o and_o he_o say_v let_v i_o go_v for_o the_o day_n

name_n shall_v be_v call_v no_o more_o jacob_n but_o israel_n for_o as_o a_o prince_n have_v thou_o power_n with_o god_n and_o man_n and_o have_v prevail_v as_o we_o read_v in_o the_o 32d_o of_o genesis_n so_o again_o in_o hosea_n chap._n 12._o we_o read_v that_o by_o his_o power_n he_o prevail_v with_o the_o angel_n he_o weep_v and_o make_v supplication_n unto_o he_o he_o find_v he_o in_o bethel_n and_o there_o he_o speak_v with_o we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o contend_v all_o the_o night_n with_o his_o god_n by_o his_o prayer_n and_o tear_n and_o by_o that_o mean_v he_o as_o it_o be_v conquer_v the_o almighty_a and_o obtain_v his_o favour_n blessing_n and_o succour_n so_o as_o that_o he_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o astonish_a danger_n he_o be_v in_o but_o god_n think_v

his_o necessity_n so_o god_n in_o my_o text_n when_o he_o call_v his_o afflict_a people_n israel_n it_o be_v that_o he_o may_v make_v we_o understand_v that_o when_o we_o be_v benight_a in_o affliction_n as_o we_o be_v at_o this_o time_n and_o when_o we_o fear_v the_o rage_n and_o fury_n of_o our_o enemy_n that_o then_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o god_n in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n to_o repent_v of_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o entire_o renounce_v they_o and_o to_o have_v recourse_n to_o his_o mercy_n and_o grace_n alone_o for_o pardon_n and_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o strive_v with_o he_o continual_o by_o our_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n till_o we_o have_v disarm_v as_o it_o be_v his_o almighty_a arm_n and_o obtain_v his_o blessing_n and_o assistance_n and_o that_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v we_o ought_v always_o to_o set_v his_o fear_n before_o our_o eye_n and_o to_o walk_v humble_o with_o our_o god_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n it_o be_v for_o this_o end_n likewise_o he_o call_v we_o man_n you_o man_n of_o israel_n for_o thereby_o he_o design_n to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o frailty_n of_o our_o nature_n and_o to_o make_v we_o consider_v that_o since_o our_o life_n be_v in_o continual_a danger_n either_o by_o the_o fury_n of_o our_o enemy_n or_o by_o sickness_n or_o by_o a_o thousand_o other_o accident_n to_o which_o we_o be_v liable_a we_o have_v reason_n to_o pray_v without_o cease_v and_o to_o throw_v ourselves_o into_o the_o arm_n of_o our_o god_n who_o alone_o be_v able_a to_o conduct_v and_o preserve_v we_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o the_o danger_n our_o life_n be_v continual_o expose_v to_o ii_o now_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v the_o consolation_n he_o give_v his_o people_n under_o their_o suffering_n fear_v not_o say_v he_o thou_o worm_v jacob_n and_o you_o man_n of_o israel_n i_o will_v help_v thou_o say_v the_o lord_n and_o thy_o redeemer_n be_v the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n believer_n my_o friend_n have_v several_a reason_n to_o be_v afraid_a but_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o they_o have_v recourse_n to_o he_o alone_o upon_o all_o occasion_n 1._o the_o devil_n use_v all_o his_o effort_n to_o tempt_v we_o with_o the_o pleasure_n riches_n and_o vanity_n of_o the_o world_n but_o then_o we_o be_v to_o beg_v of_o god_n without_o cease_v that_o he_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n but_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o evil_a one._n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n we_o must_v take_v care_n ourselves_o to_o avoid_v the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n and_o separate_v ourselves_o from_o the_o place_n and_o person_n that_o may_v induce_v we_o to_o offend_v god_n we_o must_v also_o renounce_v the_o world_n and_o mortify_v our_o body_n by_o moderation_n and_o sobriety_n according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o st._n peter_n 1_o pet._n 5.8_o be_v sober_a be_v vigilant_a for_o your_o adversary_n the_o devil_n as_o a_o roar_a lion_n walk_v about_o seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v who_o resist_v steadfast_a in_o the_o faith_n moreover_o we_o must_v read_v and_o meditate_v on_o the_o word_n of_o god_n with_o continual_a application_n of_o mind_n and_o constant_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n for_o it_o be_v by_o his_o word_n and_o spirit_n he_o fortify_v our_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v by_o faith_n we_o be_v enable_v to_o repel_v all_o the_o fiery_a dart_n of_o the_o devil_n 2._o if_o our_o sin_n terrify_v we_o god_n command_v we_o to_o have_v recourse_n to_o his_o mercy_n and_o grace_n as_o i_o live_v say_v the_o lord_n god_n i_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o wicked_a but_o that_o the_o wicked_a turn_n from_o his_o way_n and_o live_v ezek._n 33.11_o in_o case_n we_o be_v sincere_o convert_v so_o as_o to_o conceive_v a_o sacred_a horror_n for_o sin_n and_o hearty_o renounce_v all_o our_o evil_a habit_n and_o cease_v to_o do_v evil_a and_o learn_v to_o do_v good_a then_o the_o promise_n in_o isa_n 1.18_o that_o though_o our_o sin_n be_v as_o scarlet_n they_o shall_v be_v white_a as_o snow_n though_o they_o be_v red_a like_o crimson_n they_o shall_v be_v as_o wool_n to_o this_o end_n we_o must_v hearty_o embrace_v jesus_n christ_n as_o our_o saviour_n by_o a_o firm_a and_o lively_a faith_n for_o it_o be_v he_o that_o suffer_v death_n for_o we_o upon_o earth_n and_o now_o intercede_v in_o our_o behalf_n in_o heaven_n it_o be_v he_o that_o be_v the_o lamb_n of_o god_n which_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n john_n 1.29_o 3._o if_o believer_n be_v at_o any_o time_n afflict_v with_o bodily_a disease_n it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o we_o apply_v ourselves_o to_o he_o as_o the_o sovereign_a physician_n of_o our_o body_n as_o well_o as_o soul_n for_o it_o be_v he_o alone_o that_o be_v able_a to_o deliver_v we_o out_o of_o all_o our_o trouble_n and_o have_v promise_v that_o all_o thing_n shall_v work_v together_o for_o our_o good_a if_o we_o do_v but_o fear_v he_o and_o profit_n by_o his_o chastisement_n 4._o the_o faithful_a people_n of_o god_n have_v likewise_o reason_n to_o be_v afraid_a of_o the_o cheat_n and_o disguise_n of_o false_a teacher_n for_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v 2_o cor._n 11.13_o 14_o 15._o these_o false_a apostle_n be_v deceitful_a worker_n transform_v themselves_o into_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n and_o no_o marvel_n for_o satan_n himself_o be_v transform_v into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o great_a thing_n if_o his_o minister_n also_o be_v transform_v as_o the_o minister_n of_o righteousness_n but_o if_o believer_n constant_o address_v themselves_o to_o god_n for_o the_o assistance_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n god_n will_v deliver_v they_o out_o of_o the_o snare_n of_o these_o false_a teacher_n my_o sheep_n say_v christ_n john_n 10.28_o 29._o shall_v never_o perish_v neither_o shall_v any_o pluck_v they_o out_o of_o my_o hand_n

to_o know_v if_o they_o be_v of_o god_n they_o must_v like_o the_o ancient_a berean_o examine_v the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v preach_v to_o they_o to_o know_v if_o they_o agree_v with_o the_o holy_a
