When God grants mercies to his people, he would have them of Obs. 1 lively spirits, to be quick and vigorous and of active spirits. And this is the scope of the holy Ghost in this text, however the Saints may seem as dead men when wicked men prevail over them, yet when God gives rest and life they shall be lively and full of spirit; God loves not to see his people of a sad sullen pensive disposition, when that they have matter of the greatest joy in the world.
