“He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee will not slumber” (Psa 121:3).
What privileged people we are! Our God has promised that He will not allow our feet which have been set on the Rock of Ages (Psa 40:2), to be moved or shaken.
“He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways” (Psa 91:11,12). “He will keep the feet of His saints” (I Sam 2:9). Is it not amazing that not only are the holy angels holding us in their mighty hands that our feet may not dash against a stone, but the Lord also is Himself watching over our feet night and day – He doesn’t ever slumber or sleep!
However, if the Lord is to keep our feet we have a part to play. “I have refrained my feet from every evil way” (Psa 119:101). Here ‘feet’ means ‘walk of life’. In other words, when our walk of life is free from all known evil, the Lord will preserve our feet from being shaken and also from falling. “Thou hast delivered… my feet from falling” (Psa 116:8).
If God is caring and keeping our feet, the lowest part of the body, how much more He must be willing to care for our head – to keep it from evil thoughts, imaginations etc! If God cares so much for our body, how much more He must care for our soul!
