Strength of Feets
Strength of Feets [Outline]
Samson is recognized as the strongest man in the Bible, and others who displayed great physical strength include Eleazer, Benaiah, Adino the Tachmonite, and Jacob. When talking about physical prowess, we sometimes use the phrase “feats of strength”. But the Bible also teaches us about the value of our feet. We shouldn’t overlook what we can accomplish by willing to go where He sends us or the danger of rushing into sin

2 Samuel 15:1-6
Absalom had recruited men to serve as runners for the prestige it would give him
Jeremiah 23:21
False prophets are quick to spread their false teachings, and many people follow them because of their energy. Like any other talent, being able to run quickly has to be put to good service. It is what we do with our talents that matters, not what our talents are or how exceptional they make us appear.
