2. Partly, To strengthen our Trust, and to fortify us against all fears and discouragements in our service. When we think of the great Creator of Heaven and Earth, and all things visible and invisible, Angels, Men, Principalities, &c. Surely the brightness of all creature-glory should wax dim in our eyes; Our God is able to deliver us, Dan. 18. and will, as he did by his Angel. This was that which fortified Stephen, Acts 5.55, 56. He saw Jesus standing at the right hand of God. It is easy for him who made all things out of nothing to help us. See Psal. 121.2. My help standeth in the name of the Lord who made heaven and earth. The Almighty Creator, Ruler and Governor of the World, what cannot he do! As long as I see those glorious monuments of his power standing, I will not distrust he can afford me seasonable help by his Holy Angels through the intercession of his Son who hath assumed my Nature.
