It is very sweet and blessed; under present troubles, to call to remembrance former mercies. Asaph found this, Psalms 77:3-6. Hence that sweet promise, Genesis 22:14. Reader, let you and I look back, under any new troubles, to past deliverances, and behold the many Ebenezers which we have set up, that we may say, Hitherto hath God helped us. And in doing this we shall find occasion therefrom to say, with the apostle, who delivered us from so great a death and doth deliver, in whom we trust that he will yet deliver. 1 Samuel 7:12; 2 Corinthians 1:10.
