days of such as in this our Israel are as Joshua’s amongst us, Josh. xxiv. 31. And the elders that over- lived him, which have known all the works of the Lord, which he hath done for their fathers. But if yet, notwithstanding, afterwards, such shall forget, and not regard those, his great works, here presented before them, besides many more, that I hope by some others may come to their view; be they assured, he will destroy them, and not build them up, Psal. xxviii. 5. Oh, therefore, let the truly godly in this land, be incited by the example of Moses, as the mouth of the church, to pray earnestly and incessantly unto the Lord, that his work may yet appear to his servants, and his glory unto their children, Psal. xc. 16; Isa. xliv. 3, 4. And that he would pour out his spirit upon his church and people in New England, and his blessing upon their offspring, that they may spring up as among the grass, and as the willows by the watercourses; that so great occasion there may be thereby of taking notice thereof in succeeding generations, to the praise and glory of God. So be it.
