12 And from all these doe wee desire, that our God would deliuer vs, by enabling vs with his strength: that so dwelling vnder his protection and defence, we may firmlie stand against all the assaults of Sathan.
13 So the word DELIVER, doeth admonish us of our weakness, and ignorance. For, if we were able by our own strength to withstand temptations, we should not stand in need to crave strength and aide else where: This our deliverance from sin then, is not in our selves, neither doth it depend upon our selves, but only upon the strength, grace, and mercy of God.
