for their governors. You wish them well, but do you pray for them, in your classes, families, and societies. c) This behavior under God’s judgment and blessings in general I am afraid (MH) to say is against us that we are rather the sinful cause of the continuing of this terrible war, for we do not turn to the Lord, who has punished us, and how must the profane disposition of the inhabitants of this land, notwithstanding the righteousness of their cause, make the pious governors to tremble when they see or hear, that we do not learn righteousness. Oh that we (MH) from this moment might become desirous to be indeed for a strength to our leaders in the Lord; that a good report be spread of us, that the inhabitants of this city seek the Lord diligently. This might animate our rulers the more, that their work is from God and shall be prosperous. Why else do we fast and pray, Isaiah 58:7. 766 γ) So any of us excited who never before did stand in the gap to heal the breeches. Oh! my friend a) endeavor first to get the Lord for your God and to join yourselves to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; for as long as you are without Christ and aliens from the Commonwealth of Israel, your prayer is of little worth, God doth not hear sinners, John 9:31. 767 b) keep yourselves not only under the means of grace, but make more of them than ever before. Seek in the back of the Lord; and you will hear that strength to come to falleth [?] unto God. Be hereby encouraged to prostrate yourself in your impotence before Jesus and as poor spirit to pray for his grace and spirit, that ye also may be enabled to be a strength to the governors by your faith, prayer, and Holy Conversation, though you had not a farthing to contribute, neither advice nor assistance to give, yet you would prevail, with the Lord in saving the saviors of your country, and your land, even more than others who lean on their own wisdom and power, without calling upon the Lord of hosts. λ. This the people of God most willingly grant ye (YHWH), though the world does not know you, yet pious governors say in their heart although you perhaps do not hear it. α) What a privilege that even the mighty ones strengthen themselves by you, who are frequently the meanest and weakest; you have a public spirit, your prayer is for your land and the Church of God; you refuse not but are willing to do your duty for the prosperity of both, even fighting unto blood. β) continue and persevere; do not faint in this good work, but multiply your supplications for your governors, like Jacob, Hosea 12:6.sqq. 768 Be Holy, the Lord expects it from you. Your leaders think so of you. Do answer and confirm yourself, yea, this prediction, for all things are yours. Amen. 766 [Isaiah 58 is on genuine fasting] “Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, and bring the homeless poor into your house; when you see the naked, to cover them, and not to hide yourself from your own kin?” 767 “We know that God does not listen to sinners, but He does listen to one who worships Him and obeys His will.” 768 “But as for you, return to your God, hold fast to love and justice, and wait continually for your God.” 360
