“The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
he enables me to tread on the heights.” Habakkuk 3:19
The following excerpt is from Pastor Pete’s post, Progress in High Places. It will give you insight into today’s verse and encourage you, too. I hope you will read it.
“The armies of the Babylonian empire were now destroying his nation, burning the temple and putting an end to the kingdom that God had once given to King David. Things couldn’t have looked worse. Habakkuk saw that no matter how hard he tried or how persuasively he preached, that his version of success was not to be, and yet God gave him hope. In his darkest moments, Habakkuk discovered that God was still his strength…”
In His Love, Cindy

I enjoyed Pastor Pete’s post. Making progress is much more doable than perfection! Thank you both.

As you probably know, Cindy, this verse is one I pray every day as I “put on the belt of truth.” As I am called “to higher places,” that belt – like a mountain climber’s belt – keeps me attached to the One who goes before me and is calling me higher, keeps me from backsliding when I slip, and keeps me from falling to my death when I stumble. And someday I will reach the top and get the full view of my forever home with Him.
