Psalms 28

REFLECTIONS UPON PSALM XXVIII.—Deep distress should awaken strong cries to God. Not the Jewish holy of holies, but Christ, is our oracle, in which dwells all the fulness of the God-head bodily; and through him our prayers are more to speed. What a burden to exercised saints are sin and sinners while they live in this world! Seducing sinners are always busy; and they who would avoid their ruin must shun their ways.—But great are the thankful praises which saints owe to their God for the mercies which have been granted in answer to their prayer, and which faith assures them he will grant. And what almighty power and grace Jesus Christ, and every one of his true members, have engaged on their side to prevent their miscarriage! Clusters of well-connected and everlasting blessings are secured by God for his people. And great should be the joy they have in, and care for, one another’s spiritual and eternal welfare
