If you be sick, and the Physician tell you what you must do, and prescribe you means, and you set them in your window, or let them stand upon your table, and do not do as he prescribes, you may dye of your disease; you must observe his advise, for the time, when, and for the ⟨p. 157⟩quantity, how much you must take, or else your distemper will abide, yea and increase; Christ will tell you what you must do, and if you follow his directions, your soul shall recover and be saved.
6. If you would be healed of your soul-sickness; you must not let slip the time of healing; There is a time, a nick of time for healing, if you let that pass, you will dye of your disease. The Impotent people that lay at the Pool of Bethesda, were to observe the season when the Angel moved upon the water, and he that stepped in at the very nick of time was healed, Joh. 5.4.

Close then with the present motions of the spirit, if yet thou feel him working upon thy heart.
