Psalms 77:11-15

Here is a devout reference to the history of the church in past times: and very ample are the pages in that history to give comfort to a troubled soul, when the Holy Ghost, as the Remembrancer of Christ, takes down the sacred volume, turns to the many blessed passages of God's faithfulness there recorded, and helps the soul to believe the truths of God, and make application of them to his own case and circumstances. Those subjects are eminently useful, which typically represent that far greater deliverance than the rescue of the sons of Jacob and Joseph from Egyptian bondage, even our spiritual deliverance from sin and Satan, and death and hell, by the glorious salvation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
