#PSALMS 40: 2-" He drew me up from the desolate pit". #JONAH 2: 2-"...He answered me, out of the belly of Sheol.."
By the ..."BELLY OF SHEOL" and "DESOLATE PIT"...

Both the Scriptures refer to the "SIN"(,i.e carnal,dust,worldly,flesh etc). Romans 5:12 states," Therefore as "SIN" came into the world through a "MAN"(i.e. Worldly, carnal,fleshly etc.) and "DEATH" through "SIN...

To simplify the above scripture, 1 Corinthians 15: 21 states,"....For as by a "MAN" (i.e Worldly,Flesh,carnal etc) came " DEATH...".
Therefore "MAN" and "SIN are one= DEATH. "DEATH" comes through a "MAN" who is of a "DUST", meaning worldly»sinful nature»Flesh.etc.
To put more emphasis on "DUST", Job 4: 19 states," How much more of those who dwell in houses of " CLAY", whose foundation is in the "DUST" , who are crushed before the moth". In simple form," THOSE OF "CLAY", WHOSE FOUNDATION IS IN THE "DUST"( i.e worldly,sin,flesh, in simple terms "MAN", who are crushed before the moth. Jeremiah 18:6 states, " Behold , "LIKE" the "CLAY" in the potter's hand, So ARE YOU(MAN,="CLAY" in my hand"....

In Continuity, PSALMS 40: 2 states, "He drew me up from the "DESOLATE PIT"( out of sin,worldly,carnal,flesh etc), out of "MIRY BOG" ( muddy, watery ground)..."Muddy, watery ground refers to the condition the "DUST" is in..

The verse continues by saying "... And set my feet upon a "ROCK", now let's read Matt 7: 24 which states," Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the "ROCK"...now question: To whom does the "ROCK" refer?...1 corinthians 10: 4 states,"....and the Rock was Christ".

Now PSALMS 40:2 concludes by saying,"...Making my steps secure"
To wrap up, Matt 7:24 says, " Every ONE then who hears these WORDS OF MINE and DOES THEM will be like a wise man who BUILT his HOUSE upon the "ROCK"..now in simple form, the verse says," ONE WHO HEARS & DOES THESE WORDS OF MINE WILL BE BUILDING HIS HOUSE(Life ) UPON THE "ROCK"(Lord Jesus) who will secure his/her steps.

Now the FOUNDATION OF A DUST(i.e Worldly,carnal,Sin,flesh etc) which leads or results to Death has been demolished and replaced by the FOUNDATION OF THE ROCK(Lord Jesus),who secures your life.

GLORY TO GOD,MIGHTY and STRONG in battle in the name of Our LORD JESUS Who SAVES!!!
