Preparation must be made before hand, 1against the time of trial. cThe care which Job had for his children before hand, must we have for our selves. It should seem that he himself looked for the evil days that came upon him: for he saith; The thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, 3&c. And this was it which made hime so well endure so sore assaults. Very careful was Christ in preparing the Disciples against his departure, because he knew there were evil days coming upon them. The last petition of the Lords prayer tendeth to this purpose.
