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.

Psalms 94:18 In-Context

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

17 If the LORD hadn't helped me, I would live instantly in total silence.

18 Whenever I feel my foot slipping, your faithful love steadies me, LORD.

19 When my anxieties multiply, your comforting calms me down.

20 Can a wicked ruler be your ally; one who wreaks havoc by means of the law?
