It is not that I was delivered, it is that, He came down to deliver me! Psalm 40:1-2:

It is not that I was delivered, it is that, He came down to deliver me!
Psalm 40:1-2:
1I waited patiently for the LORD, he inclined to me and heard my cry.
2He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure 3He put a new song in my mouth a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the LORD."
Very rarely, will someone get into a smelly pit of dung, full of muddy, smelly corruption to reach out and deliver someone who is trapped and unable to be set free from such corruption; lest they, also, fall into it, and become marred and with the same stench of corruption and bondage. Rolling around in a smelly pigs pen will only cause the onlookers who are clean, dressed in fine cloths, smelling fresh with the sweetness of perfumes to avoid and condemn the one trapped in a smelly muddy pit of corruption-in order to avoid getting stained themselves. The hypocrisy of self-righteous people is such, that, they would only associate with those who are clean like them, dressed in fine cloths, smelling fresh with fine perfumes to cover up their own corruption and bondage to their own sin cursed nature. "7For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. 8But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.…Romans 5:7-9.
From the smelly pit of corruption I was delivered! I know someone who was willing to get stained and jump in the smelly pit of corruption to deliver me! I know someone who was willing to become bloody naked on the cursed cross, that I might become clothed in His blood and perfumed with the glory of Heaven! Yeah, I know someone like that, His name is Jesus, and He who knew no sin became sin for me that I would be made righteous in God's sight and be delivered from God's wrath! 2 Corinthians 5:20 "He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."
I know someone who was willing to let go of the glory of His eternal Throne and come down to the greatest depths, to not only reach down, but leave His throne and go to the greatest and farthest depth of the miry pit of sin, corruption and death, where I was lying helpless to its great hold on me to the bondage of my will.
"5Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,b being born in the likeness of men. 8And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:5-11
It was not that I was delivered from the jaws of sin, death and corruption and the eternal grip of God's wrath abiding constantly upon me; but it was that, He found me where I was lying helpless and joined me without any selfish concerns for Himself that my condition would stain Him--indeed, He was stained for me and fully drank of the cup of God's wrath, He was stained with His crimson red blood for me! He was willing to be scarred in His nail scarred hands and feet for all eternity for me! Notwithstanding, His selfless concerns for His own glorified body, notwithstanding, His willingness to empty Himself of all but Love for me--He was not doomed for me, that He would not come back, and there would be no hopes of ever seeing Him again--No! But the miry pit could not hold Him for all eternity, But He came into the pit to deliver me, and He broke me free from the jaws of sin, death and destruction and ripped through the jaws of death, never to die again in His Resurrection! He, the mighty conqueror, was literally Hell bent on delivering me from the eternal throws of eternal torment of the wrath of God upon me! A mighty conqueror bent on victorious conquest and mighty deliverance from my helpless estate! A victorious King--indeed, the Lion of Judah, conquering eternal Hell and punishment for me!
It is not that I was delivered from the wrath of God and the pit of destruction, but it is that He delivered me! He sought me, found me, came to be there with me in my bondage and imprisoned soul and His mighty Hand swooped me in His mighty embrace and delivered me setting me free, carrying me up out of the smelly jaws of sin, death and corruption! Yes, indeed, He delivered me!
