Beloved, here the Lord is come to seal all these Promises to you. Oh go home, and bless yourselves in the sweet Security of your Estate. God hath promised you, that whatever Condition you be in, you shall have Succour and Support from him, and enjoy his Presence with you; and see his Finger in all your Troubles, sweetly turning all to the best: Go away, and live like Believers, be not afraid of Sufferings, but show that you believe what God hath promised, that Affliction shall not hurt you. The next time any Trouble comes upon you, remember what a Promise GOD hath passed unto you this Day, and wait on him believingly for the happy Issue and Event of every Trial that shall befall you.

Art. VI. That he will take upon him the Care of all of all your Concernments. You must be careful in nothing, Philip. 4.5. He careth for you, Pet. 5.7. Take no Thought what you shall eat or drink, neither be of doubtful Mind, but rather seek you the Kingdom of God, and all these Things shall be added to you, Luke 12.29, 31. Come you to this Holy Ordinance in any Distress or Trouble? Methinks you should go from it as Hannah, and your Countenance be no more sad. God will number your Hairs: And will take care that nothing be lost, Joh. 6.26.
