The saints sacrifice

These words ^*before the LORD (word for word at the face, or in the presence of the Lord) do determine the kind of walking which he intendeth: namely such an one, as he would not be afraid, or ashamed that the Lord should see: but such a walking as the Lord should well like and approve. In other places to this kind of walking these phrases are added, ^hwith God, ⁱafter the Lord, ^kworthy of the Lord: all which in effect import one and the same thing. He that walks with God, so carieth himself as knowing God is by him. He that walks after the Lord, behaveth himself a• a servant following his master, and is ever at hand to do what his master requireth. He that walks worthy of the Lord, so demeaneth himself as becometh a servant of the Lord, so as the Lord may be honoured by him. He that walketh before the Lord, doth all things as in the sight of the Lord, whom he knoweth to be ^levery where present, to ^msee in the dark as well as in the light, and to be ⁿa searcher of the heart: and thereby he is moved in all places open and secret, at all times, day and night, in deed, in word, in thought to have such respect to God, as to do nothing, but that he which seeth it, may approve it; nor to make show of more then he intendeth, but to do the good which he doth sincerely, ^oheartily, as to the Lord. The Apostle that was guided by the same spirit that he which penned Henoks history was, having relation to that history, saith, Before his translation he had this testimony that he pleased God. What Moses stileth walking with God, the Apostle expoundeth pleasing God. The intent therefore of the Psalmist here is to endeavour to please God.
