The works and labours of Gods people are transacted from them in 1heaven, before they once undertake them. The Israelites were now going to Canaan, God doth their work for them before hand They 2did but go up and take possession; Joshua and Caleb tell the people not only that their enemies defence was departed from them, but that they were but bread for them: Num. 14. 9. Not corn that might be prepared, but bread, ground, made up, ready baked, ready ⟨p. 24⟩to e at. Their work was done in heaven. Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world, Acts 15. 18. All that is done here below, is but the writing of a visible copy for the sons of men to read, out of the eternal lines of his own purpose.
