Page:Faith's plea upon God's word.pdf/18

( 18 ) can no more ſtir than a rock, and hath no more life than a dead corpſe ? God ſays, and O that he would lay it with power, " Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon theſe ſlain, that they may live. Ezek. xxxvii. 12 I will open your graves, and cauſe you to come out of your graves, and ye ſhall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, and ſhall put my Spirit in you, and ye ſhall live.” Hath he ſaid ſo ? Then O put him to his word, ſaying, LORD, do as thou haſt ſaid.

But, Oh ! is there any word that GOD faith concerning me, that have forfeited GOD's favour, by heaping up great and inſuperable mountains betwixt him and me, that I fear he will never come over ? Why, he ſays, Zech. iv. 7. “ Who art thou, O great mountain, before our Zerubabel ? Thou ſhalt become a plain. “ He ſhall bring forth the head-ſtone with ſhouting, crying, Grace, grace unto it." He can make the mountains skip like rams, and the little hills like lambs, -Hath he ſaid ſo ? Then, O put him to his word, and ſay, LORD, do as thou haſt ſaid.
