"The LORD GOD is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hind's feet and will make me to walk (not to stand still in terror, but to walk) and make (spiritual) progress upon my high places (of trouble, suffering, or responsibility)! (Hab. 3:19 AMP).
I don't normally do Amplified, but this Scripture really blessed me. It made me think of the hymn "As the deer" and I thought, "how interesting, that very often we ARE acting like the deers (on the high way), we get paralized with fear and miss out on the huge blessing. When God gave us an ability to be like deers, He most likely meant to be as fast and be able to go high places BUT enemy , who always counterfits God ( as we all know) , somehow convinced us that when we give in to our fears and doubts and freeze, paralized with it (like deer and a headlight) that we are "deer enough". Look at this Scripture again, " He makes my feet like hind's feet to walk (not stand still in terror, but to walk) and make (spiritual) progress". I am tired of the enemy's lies and allowing him to rob me off my blessings! If I have to be compared to the animal with hooves, I want to make the best of it :)
So, dear one (or should I write "deer"one) God has given you a wonderful ability to be fast and capable of reaching the new heights! Let's run together! After all, as the Scripture promises, our God is our invincible army, so you and I are not alone. I pray that the sound of our "hooves" will scare the enemy and will paralize him with fear, let him taste some of his own medicine.
Our God is awesome!!! Be encouraged!
