“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 3:9
What does it mean to have feet like the feet of a deer? Some biblical translations also use the term “hind’s feet.” It refers to the ability of the deer to place their hind feet directly where their front feet have been. The result is an amazing ability to stay sure and steady in even the most uncertain terrain. In fact, such animals have been known to scale almost sheer mountain cliffs and to navigate with great agility across ridiculous heights. With the Lord as our strength, He transforms us and makes us able to endure and overcome even the most severe circumstances and difficulties. You are meant for high places! Even when the going seems terribly rough, God has made you to be an overcomer!
