Psalm 44:1–8, “We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old. How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out. For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them. Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob. Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us. In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.”
Whenever David felt he was struggling with problems in the present, he looked back into history and saw what the Lord had done before. He could read what the Lord had done for Israel in years gone by. The Lord took them away from slavery in Egypt and gave them a land of their own. They didn’t do much to gain the land but the Lord acted as the greatest warrior in history and drove out their enemies before them. These people lived in the Land but they didn’t value the Land and debased it with their foul, inhuman practices. David knew that he served the same Lord and that the Lord would continue to act as He had always acted in love, for the good of the chosen people.
