"He will keep the feet of his
saints." I Sam. 2:9
The way
is slippery, and our feet are feeble, but the Lord will keep our feet. If we
give ourselves up by obedient faith to be His holy ones, He will Himself be our
guardian. Not only will He charge His angels to keep us, but He Himself will
preserve our goings.
He will
keep our feet from falling, so that we do not defile our garments, wound our souls,
and cause the enemy to blaspheme.
He will
keep our feet from wandering, so that we do not go into paths of error, or ways
of folly, or courses of the world's custom.
He will
keep our feet from swelling through weariness, or blistering because of the roughness
and length of the way.
He will
keep our feet from wounding: our shoes shall be iron and brass, so that even though
we tread on the edge of the sword, or on deadly serpents, we shall not bleed,
or be poisoned.
He will
also pluck our feet out of the net. We shall not be entangled by the deceit of
our malicious and crafty foes.
With such
a promise as this, let us run without weariness, and walk without fear. He who
keeps our feet will do it effectually.
Psalm 18:33
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on
the heights.
