There yet Remains a Knot of our Enemies, in those Inaccessible Thickets, where we Despair ever to Find 'em out; but I will Read their Doom, from Psal. 21.8, 9, 10 Thine Hand, O Lord, shall Find out all thine Enemies, Thy Right Hand shall Find out th•se that Hate thee; The Lord shall Swallow them up in His Wrath, and the Fire shall Devour them; Their Fruit shalt thou Destroy from the Earth, and their Seed from among the Children of men. What Remains for Us, is, That we do by Prayer and Faith, put our Enemies over, into those Omnipotent Hands, that can Find them out, and cut them off. Oh! Let us keep our Hands Lifted up in Prayer, for a Total Dissipation of ⟨p. 246⟩those Amalekites, which have thus long and thy far prevailed against us! We have already ha• many Notable Answers of Prayer in this our War Every one of our Deliverances have been very Notably Such! We cannot say, How many particular Persons, have Received Answers of Prayer, in th• particular Troubles, which this Evil Time hath Ensnared them withal. Doubtless, many […] Christian, ha's in this Time, had opportunity to say, This poor man cried, and the Lord Heard him and Saved him out of all his Troubles! And several Towns, that have had a Remarkable Protection of God upon them, in this long Time of Danger, they have had a Praying People in them, and that Praying People have been the Chariots and the Horse men thereof. Why else does Deerfield Stand? How should our Prayer be Quickened by such Experiences! But there is this further Quickening for it, That with the Cry of our Prayer, there will go up unto the Lord, the Cry of Blood; much Innocent, & Righteous, & Precious Blood, Cries to Heaven, from the Ground against those Bloody and Crafty men, that have Treacherously shed it. Certainly, They must not Live out all their Days! And we have this prevailing ple• against them, in the Court of Heaven! That they have most Falsely Broken their Covenants, in their Outrages. We may venture, to present our Memorials, in the Court of Heaven, against these Covenant Breakers, who are Implacable and Unmerciful; ⟨p. 247⟩and we may use the words of Jephthah, against his Heathen Adversaries, The Lord the Judge, be Judge between us and them! We may use the words of Jehoshaphat against his Heathen Adversaries, O our God, wilt thou not Judge them?
