Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. Psalms 2:12. For, whosoever believeth on him shall not he ashamed. Romans 10:11. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bring forth his fruit m his season; his leaf also shall not wither, and whatsoever he doth shall prosper. Psalms 1:1-2.
O glorious promise! there can be nothing above the fear of God and the love of his word. Now, O Lord, since thou hast worked in me a good will and a delight m thy word, which is a true mark of my new birth, and shows that I am no more under the law, grant that I may also understand and do thy will; and that the old man may be mortified, and the new strengthened evermore.
I desire to have this love of thy word daily increased in such a manner, as never to be satiated with it.
Great God, mine eyes with pleasure, look
On the dear volume of thy book;
There my Redeemer’s face I see.
And read his name who died for me.
Let the false raptures of the mind
Be lost and vanished in the wind:
Here I can fix my hope secure,
This is thy word, and must endure.
God’s kindest thoughts are here expressed.
Able to make us wise and blessed;
The doctrines are divinely true,
Fit for reproof and comfort too.
