He that believes shall not make haste. Isaiah 28:16. Lift up thy rod. Exodus 14:16. New trials, new blessings!

What seems to oppose, nay to destroy our faith, must further and quicken it most. Faith, is the most pleasant and important thing in the eyes of God. Jeremiah 5:3. For he is exceeding willing to help us, but cannot do it till he has first given us faith; since it is always said, thy faith hath saved thee. Therefore, if you will have his assistance, believe only; for humble faith has the Lord as it would have him, and receives all things. Matthew 15:28.

Luther says, " Faith, is a great, miraculous thing; giving such courage to a poor, weak man, that he can say, if all the devils fall upon me, and all the emperors and kings, nay, heaven and earth opposed me, yet I am sure that I shall be saved." But without faith God can do no wonders and miracles for us. But such as believe shall be saved, should even heaven and earth pass away: for he has promised and said, He that believes shall be saved; which word stands firmer than heaven and earth, since thereby he has created all things, consequently he will, and it is fit we should depend and trust upon that, though heaven and earth and all the stars and elements were against us. Taking therefore the word in our hands, and fighting resolutely with it against our enemies, we shall surely beat them, down and break through all assaults and oppositions.

His sovereign power, what mortal knows?
If he commands, who dare oppose?
With strength he girds himself around,
And treads the rebels to the ground.
