Walk without Stumbling
He will not allow your foot to be moved.
~ Psalm 121:3
"If the Lord will not allow it, neither men nor devils can do it. How greatly would they rejoice if they could give us a disgraceful fall, drive us from our position, and bury us out of memory! They could do this to their heart's content were it not for one hinderance, and only one: the Lord will not allow it; and if He does not allow it, we shall not allow it.
When traveling along mountain paths one is constantly exposed to the slipping of the foot. Where the way is high, the head is apt to swim and then the feet soon slide. He, who throughout life is enabled to keep himself upright and to walk without stumbling, has the best of reasons for gratitude. What with pitfalls and snares, weak knees, weary feet, and subtle enemies, no child of God would stand fast for an hour were it not for the faithful love which will not allow his foot to be moved.
"Amidst a thousand snares I stand upheld and guarded by Thy hand; that hand unseen shall hold me still, and lead me to Thy holy hill."" (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of all our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those are indebted to us, and for those who have trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil; For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
