II. Let not God's People be afraid, for the Lord sits upon the Floods, &c.
1. He sits upon the Floods as an Observer, his Eye is upon the Wicked, he sees what they are doing in secret, their Counsels are not hid from him.
2. The Lord sits upon the Floods, to direct and order their Course; Afflictions are ordered by him, both in respect of kind and duration.
3. The Lord sits upon the Floods as a Restrainer; He can assuage these mighty Waters at his pleasure: Surely the Wrath of Man shall praise thee, and the Remainder of Wrath shalt thou restrain.
