And if we look to the change of Metaphorical mountains, it is a truth, an illustrious truth, that the Lord displays his mighty power, in removing and over-turning the great estates and establishments of men or kingdoms. When God removes the mountain of our peace, of our riches, the mountain of outward prosperity, and of civill power, it becomes us to say, He is mighty in power, who doth all these things.
And if we look to the change of Metaphoricall mountains, it is a truth, an illustrious truth, that the Lord displaies his mighty power, in removing and over-turning the great estates and establishments of men or kingdoms. When God removes the mountain of our peace, of our riches, the mountain of outward prosperity, and of civill power, it becomes us to say, He is mighty in power, who doth all these things.
God hath given us great tokens and testimonies of his power in this. How many mountains, great mountains, men who were mountains, and things which stood like mountains in our way, how many (I say) of these hath the Lord removed? Our eyes have seen mountains removing, and mighty hills melting: the power of God, and the faith of his people have wrought such miracles in our days, He removeth the mountains.
