You are our King, O God:

Please command deliverances for us.

Through You will we push down our enemies:

through Your name will we tread them under

that rise up against us.

For we will not trust in our bow, (bullets)

neither will our sword (guns) save us.

But You God have saved us from our enemies,

and You God have put them to shame that hated us.

In God we boast all the day long,

Psalm 44:4–8

If we underline the pronouns here we have

“You” and “Your” and “our.”

Over a dozen times, these pronouns in Psalms 44:1-8

They refer to God.

We meditate in this truth that we owe everything to God.

God was sovereign,

God was sufficient,

He sufficiency is complete and comforting.

No fear haunt us,

no foe daunt us,

We have God!

So we’re physically declining

Our level of energy is drained

We face opposition and obstacles everywhere we look

This has been the force of Israel’s history:

We see the greats of the faith

We want to rally into this great cloud of witnesses

Our opposition. Our obstacles. Are our opportunities!!!

If God be for us, who can be against us?
