About This Book
The sermon, delivered at Kensington for the annual thanksgiving, reads Psalm 124 and interprets a historical conspiracy as evidence of divine intervention. It links past deliverances with recent military and political successes, arguing that both owe to the same providential care and should be jointly remembered rather than one overshadowing the other. The preacher describes the conspirators' design as cruel and virtually irresistible by human means, contending that its failure demonstrates God's protection. The sermon closes with exhortations to proper thanksgiving, to recall earlier mercies alongside contemporary blessings, and to attribute national preservation to divine agency.
