8. They are the quickest dispensations. God comes not off slowly, or hardly, 1or unwillingly, or sparingly, in the performance of them. Op•n thy mouth ⟨p. 78⟩wide and I will fill it, Psal. 81. 10. Call upon me in the day of trouble, I will deliver thee, Psal. 50. 15. Before they call I will answer, and whiles they are yet speaking I will hear, Isa. 65. 24. One prayer many times melts these clouds; as in Jacobs case, one act of faith many times gets your supplies. As in Jehoshaphat's case, when you look by faith upon the promises, you are then trading with the good and kind God, by your mighty Advocate Jesus Christ, In whom all the promises of God are Yea and Amen.
