There are in Scripture three Heavens, the Airy Heaven, the Starry Heaven, and the Heaven of Heavens. In all these Heavens God's Will is done. God is obeyed in the lower Heaven, you shall see in Psal. 148. 8. Fire, Hail, Snow, and Vapours, stormy Winds fulfilling his Word. Winds and Storms, and all those things which seem to be most tempestuous and unruly, to be the disorders of Nature, they are at God's beck. Then in the Starry Heaven, vers. 6. He hath made a Decree which shall not pass: They are under a Law and Statute, and are not exorbitant and eccentric, do not alter their Path; the Sun riseth, sets, and knows the just point of his Compass. But it is chiefly meant of the Heaven of Heavens, where Angels and blessed Spirits are, and they ⟨p. 252⟩obey God perfectly. Psal. 103. 20, 21. Bless the Lord, ye his Angels, that excel in Strength, that do his Commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his Word. Bless ye the Lord, all ye his Hosts, ye Ministers of his that do his Pleasure. The Angels do his Commandments, and are hearkening to the Voice of his Word, are at God's beck to be sent up and down, to ascend and descend as God will have them; so with respect to this doth Christ say, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven.
