Psalms 31:8. And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy:
"No; I may get into the enemy’s prison, but there is no bar to it. ‘Thou hast not shut me up.’ I may seem to get into my enemy’s hand; but he cannot shut that hand." Truly, it must be so, because David had already put his soul into the hand of God: "Into thine hand I commit my spirit." How, then, could he be shut up in the hand of the enemy?
Psalms 31:8. Thou hast set my feet in a large room.
"Stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars a cage."
Wherever the child of God is when his faith is in active exercise, his feet are in a large room, by faith he walks at liberty.
