Comfort to bear up the fainting hearts of the Saints amidst all the corruptions that annoy, temptations that oppose, feebleness and difficulties that discourage: why, yet Christ is sent for the work, who is furnished with all sufficiency to do it. He hath laid salvation upon one that is mighty. Mighty pride, mighty distempers to foil thee, mighty temptations to assault thee, mighty allurements in the world to entangle thee. Why here is Salvation upon one that is mighty to save free, and deliver thee. Hither Paul retires, and strengthens himself. 2 Tim. 1.12.

All power in Heaven and Earth is committed into his had.
