The Antidote for Anxiety and Depression: Trust in Abba Father’s Care – Pt 100
Hinds’ Feet On High Places!
The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.
– Habakkuk 3:19
Since life’s challenges are inevitable never try to avoid them no matter how impossible they may seem. The mountain of challenges that you are faced with this moment can easily become a place of worship the very next moment. This is only possible, not by might not by power but by the Holy Spirit (see Zechariah 4:6). God has already equipped you with His strength to overcome the challenges of life.
God is not simply the supplier of but He Himself is your strength (ability, might, power, influence). It is He who will make (appoint, bring, put, change, charge, convey, determine, consider) your feet like hinds’ feet, and will make you to walk upon your high places (elevation, place of worship, mountain). In other words, God Himself being your strength will control or take charge of your feet like hind’s feet on high places. Therefore, you have the resolve and are able to triumphantly walk upon your mountain of challenges and successfully transform it into your place of worship.
No matter how high and big your mountain of challenges seems, how long it takes you to climb it, how tired your feet may become, how frustrated, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed you may feel at time when you think about this mountain, you will get to the top because you are not alone climbing it in your own strength, for the Lord God who is your strength is right there with you ordering your steps in His Word (see Psalm 119:133). Though He is bringing you to the top of your mountain of challenges, He is also waiting for you at the top of this mountain to enjoy your worship there.
God bless you!
