2 Chronicles 14:12-15

No wonder after such a prayer; which the Lord gave grace to offer up, that an answer of mercy and favor should come down. And Reader! pray remark one or two expressions in this account. It is said that the enemy could not recover themselves before the Lord, and before his host. And that the fear of the Lord, not the fear of Asa's army, came upon them. And such, depend upon it, is and will be the consternation and terror of all the enemies of our salvation. The Lord thy God (is the sweet promise) shall drive them out before thee, and shall deliver them into thine hand, and thou shalt destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they be destroyed. See a precious string of promises to this amount, Deuteronomy 7:1 from beginning to end. And which if the Reader spiritualizeth with an eye to Jesus (for it is pure gospel, and may be safely so interpreted) he will find it most precious indeed!
