Up and be doing, you that are about the work of the Lord. 1Your Enemies are bread ready to be eaten, and yield you refreshment. Do you think if our Armies had not walked in a trodden path they could have made such journeys as they have done of late? had not God marched before them, and traced out their way from Kent to Essex, from Wales to the North, their carcasses had long ere this, been cast into the field. Their work was done in heaven before they begun it. God was gone over the 2Mulberry trees; The work might have been done by children, though he was pleased to employ such worthy instruments. They see I doubt not their own nothingness, in his All-sufficiency. Go on then, but with this caution, search by all ways and means to find the footsteps of the mighty God, going before you.
