My brethren, God hath exalted Himself of late in our eyes, in a glorious manner, in Psal. 21. 13. Be thou exalted, 1O Lord, in thine own strength; Oh the Lord hath exalted Himself in His own strength: but mark what follows; So will we sing and praise thy Power: Oh! let us sing and praise the power of God, who hath exalted Himself ⟨p. 132⟩in his own strength, and for the good of his own people so of late. But none would exalt him (saith the text.)
- 1Also Psa. 21. 13.
God hath little honour in the world; men seek to exalt 1themselves, but none to exalt God; every man follows his own way, his own lusts, but the blessed and glorious God is exalted by few, or none. Men will appear to lift up Antichrist, to exalt him; the Kings of the Earth they will give their power to the Beast, but none will exalt the Lord. Oh! let this grieve the hearts of the Saints, to see that the blessed God, so blessed in their eyes should be exalted by so few.
