Ninthly, That he will strengthen us, and make us grow in the gifts bestowed upon us: The Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of his Children of Israel, Joel 3. 16. He giveth power to the faint, and to them that have no might, he increaseth strength: they that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, Esa. 40. 29, 31 He will be as the dew to his people.

They shall revive as the Corn, and grow as the Vine, Hosh. 14. 5, 6, 7.
