Psalm 18:33

Scripture Reference: Psalm 18:33

Scripture Exerpt:

He makes me as surefooted as a deer, leading me safely along the mountain heights.


Devotional Text

The deer is an interesting animal with incredible characteristics regarding balance. When suddenly knocked from a high, rocky crag, the deer always lands on its feet and scampers right back up to the place from which it fell. David said in verse 16 of Psalm 18, “He reached down from heaven and rescued me; he drew me out of deep waters.” Time and time again, David’s kingdom was attacked by Saul, Goliath, and countless armies of enemies. Each time, however, he managed to land securely and to climb right back up to prominence. Why? Because instead of leading David on a treacherous, narrow path, God widened the path beneath his feet “to keep them from slipping” (v. 36). Being spiritual does not make you immune from attack, but the Lord will prepare you for any battle (Psalm 18:34). When the enemy comes against you, you can “crush an army” and “scale any wall” (v. 29). Don’t lie down and wallow in self-pity when attacked, but stand up like the deer and scamper back up to the top!
