Faith furnishes a man with soul-enabling-considerations from the excellency of the employments: he sees a piece of Heaven in them: he sees these services full of beauty, sweetness, desirableness, No service to the service of the King. Oh! what then is the service of the King of Kings.

3. From the rewards which God hath promised to obedience. And these rewards Faith makes use of, to quicken and stir up the soul to Obedience; to be spurs and incentives to us, as they were to Moses, who — had an eye to the recompense of the Reward; as they were to Christ himself; who for the joy that was set before him, endured the Cross, and despised the shame, Heb. 12.2, and Heb. 11.26. All which have a mighty influence into the soul, to enable and quicken it to Obedience.
