Labour to follow God, as dear Children, 1. Sincerely, not in Hypocrisy, not for Loaves. 2. Speedily; do not defer it: I made haste, saith David, &c. 3. In whatsoever he commands you. 4. Diligently. 5. Follow him through all Difficulties and Hardships, as Caleb did, &c. and as Ruth followed Naomi. 6. Follow him humbly. 7. Follow him joyfully. 8. Follow him, when others leave him. 9. Follow him constantly, even to the end. 10. And lastly, follow none but him; forsake all those that would lead you astray. Christ's Sheep will not follow Strangers; they will follow God, and not Baal.
