God's call to England, for thankfulness after gracious deliverances

How should we earnestly crave the concurrence of God's Omnipotency, for the bettering of us by the confluence of Mercies bestowed upon us? Isai. 48.17. The Lord teaches to profit. In the greatest abundance of Means and Mercies, we shall have no profit, without the aids and assistance of God; He must teach us to improve Deliverances, to gain by his Goodness. When cords of Mercy are put into our hands, let us lift up out hearts to the Father of Mercies, and cry, Draw us, and we will follow thee. When Mercies are sown like precious seeds most plentifully amongst us, let us implore the showers of Divine Blessing to make us fruitful by them. When such invaluable Talents are put into our hands, let us seek to the Almighty for strength to work with them. Plead with the Lord to deliver thee from sin, by his Deliverances; to give thee the incomes of his Grace, to improve thy Life miraculously continued to thee. Leave not the Throne of Grace, till Grace is given thee to leave thy sins: Cease not to importune the Almighty's help against thy sins, till he hath delivered thee from them, as he hath done from thine enemies. Acknowledge ⟨p. 117⟩thine own weakness, and so thou wilt engage the strength of God: Tell him with holy boldness, that now he hath given thee his Mercies, thou canst not be content without his Blessing with them. Let temporal Deliverance edge thy appetite after spiritual and eternal. Thou hast but half a Mercy, till thy Soul is bettered by a Deliverance, whether it be from Enemies, or Sickness, or any other distress or danger.
