Psalms 94:18 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 94:18

When I said, my foot slippeth
There is no ground for me to stand upon; all is over with me; there is no hope nor help for me; I am just falling into ruin and destruction: such will be the desperate case of the church, at the time before referred to:

thy mercy, O Lord, held me up;
the extremity of his people is the Lord's opportunity; then is his set time to arise, and have mercy on them; then mercy steps in, lays a solid ground and foundation for hope, and holds up in its arms a sinking people, and revives a dying cause.

16 Who will protect me from the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers?

17 Unless the LORD had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave.

18 I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O LORD, supported me.

19 When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
