Here are more sweet images and similitudes, to describe the great and wonderful properties of God's sovereign grace in Christ Jesus. How doth the snow and the rain from heaven come down? Often unperceived; often in large showers; sometimes gentle; always unsought for, and unasked. Such, then, is the grace of God; it waiteth not for man, neither tarrieth for the sons of men. He saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth: likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength, Job 37:6. And oh! how blessed is it to observe, that this grace of God in Christ cometh as the rain from heaven! not only before we ask it, but before we know that we stood in need of it; yea, it cometh in opposition to all our undeservings and rebellions. Oh! Lord! how dost thou surprise thy people with thy grace? And how is the word of thy grace made prosperous in the souls of thy people, wholly from thine own almighty power! Micah 5:7; Psalms 72:6.

Isaiah 55:10-11
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
