When dangers threaten, it is good to retire and lie hid; when we commend
ourselves to God to hide us, he will hide us either under heaven or in
heaven. Thus we shall be safe and happy in the midst of tribulations.it
is but for a short time, as it were for a little moment; when over, it
will seem as nothing.
-
God’s place is the mercy-seat; there he
delights to be: when he punishes, he comes out of his place, for he has
no pleasure in the death of sinners.
-
But there is hardly any truth more frequently repeated in scripture, then God’s determined purpose to punish the workers of iniquity.
-
Let us keep close to the Lord, and separate from the world; and let us seek comfort in secret prayer.
-
A day of vengeance is coming on the world, and before it comes we are
to expect tribulation and suffering. But because the Christian looks for
these things, shall he be restless and dismayed? No, let him repose
himself in his God.
-
Abiding in him, the believer is safe. And let us wait patiently the fulfilling of God’s promises.
