Now (I say) as a gracious heart strengthens it self for the Lord, or (as the Apostle adviseth, Ephes. 6.10.) Grows strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might, putting on the whole Armour of God: So a wicked heart strengthens it self against the Lord, or grows strong against the Lord, and the power of his might, yea of his Almightiness, putting on the whole Armour of the Devil, that he may be able to stand against all the encounters of the Word, and of his own conscience. For as the Word of God, and the graces of the spirit are the Armour ⟨p. 137⟩and weapons by which the Saints strengthen themselves against Satan; so carnal reasonings and the lusts of the flesh, are the Armour and weapons by which wicked men strengthen themselves against God.
