Media: the middle things, in reference to the first and last things: or, The means, duties, ordinances, both secret, private and public, for continuance and increase of a godly life, once begun, till we come to Heaven. Wherein are discovered many blessed medium's or duties, in their right method, manner and proceedings; that so a Christian (the spirit of Christ assisting) may walk on in the holy path, which leads from his new birth to everlasting life. / Drawn, for the most part, out of the most eminently pious, and learned writings of our native practical divines: with additionals of his own, by Isaac Ambrose, minister of the Gospel at Preston in Amoundernes.Media: the middle things, in reference to the first and last things: or, The means, duties, ordinances, both secret, private and publike, for continuance and increase of a godly life, once begun, till we come to Heaven.

2. That as God sends it, so none can deliver us out of it but God alone:1 O our God, wilt thou not judge them? We have no might ⟨p. 169⟩against this great company that cometh against us, neither know we what to do, but our eyes are upon thee. This Meditation draws the heart from carnal repose, in means or friends; it expels vexatious and distracting cares, and estrangeth from the use of unlawful means of deliverance: The horse is prepared against the day of battle, but safety is of the Lord.
