Read these verses also spiritually, and ask what are the tithes the Lord hath respect to in what is here said? What can the Lord be requiring of his creatures, when we know that the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof? What is it then? I humbly conceive the souls of the truly awakened, regenerated believers, bring in revenues of praise to the bountiful giver of all, when God's Christ is our Christ, and the Lord's Holy One, is our Holy One. When the poor sinner thus, comes, and thus looks to the Lord, with an eye of faith to God's rich covenant mercy in Christ, there is then meat in God's house, for Christ himself is the living bread, and in Him, and by Him, the windows of heaven are opened, and blessings so profusely are poured out, that the gladdened heart finds more than his full bosom can hold. Then also the enemy is restrained; Satan is rebuked; ordinances are blessed; and the barrenness of the land is taken away! Oh! for such blessings as these on the nation, and ministers, and people!
