Psalm 91 Vs. 13

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Psm. 91:13

Thou shalt tread... This promises power over wild beasts and creeping things, as well as over all satanic powers symbolized by them (Gen. 3:15; Mar. 16:17-18; Luke 10:19; Rev. 12:9). In general, a metaphor for God’s protection from all deadly attacks (see Psalm 58:4).

Our enemies may be ferocious, but God has sent us help to walk right over these adversaries. The dragon and the adder is speaking of Satan. With the help of the angels God has dispatched, we can withstand the devil, and he will flee from us. David knew that no mere lion could defeat him, because he had God on his side. The main thing we must remember, is that the devil is a defeated foe. Walk over and past these problems that crop up in this life. We are more than conquerors through Christ who strengthens us. Those of us, who have been born again in Christ Jesus, need not fear what the world can do to us. Jesus won our victory at Calvary.
