Obs. 6 Gods mercies to his people procure much good; They are not empty shells, there is that good in them to the full, which they promise to have: these Notes are observable from the words thus understood; but now put all the sense of them together, and then they afford us two or three useful Observations more.

Obs. 7 Note, That Gods peoples deliverance comes from Heaven. They ⟨p. 567⟩spring not out of the earth, if ever Gops people are delivered there must be a Divine, Almighty power put forth, else it will never be a deliverance in mercy.
Gods peoples deliverances cannot be hindered; no not by all the Obs. 8 powers in Hell or Earth. Why? because they come from above, they are as the light of the Sun, and as the rain that comes upon the earth: who can hinder the Sun from shining the rain from falling? who can interrupt night and day? so who can hinder the rain of mercy from a people prepared for it?
