My High Places

II Samuel 22:34 - “He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places." (KJV)

God will always lead us to higher ground. In so doing, He will always equip us to be there and to overcome the heights. The sure-footedness of the Ibex is certainly a sight to behold as they effortlessly ascend and descend sheer mountainsides in the Judean Wilderness. Similarly, God has given those He leads higher the necessary gifts and the callings to succeed. He will never lead us beyond what we are able (I Corinthians 10:13).

Know this, beloved, that God will only lead us to "my high places." We should not look with envy or disdain at another's high place where God is leading them. When we do, we put ourselves in jeopardy of falling from the height He has brought us to.
