We Shall Do Valiantly

Ken

“Through God we shall do valiantly: for He it is that shall tread down our enemies” (Psalm 60:12; 108:13 KJV). Did David speak this way from victory, because arguably he had just seen defeat? “Wilt not Thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and Thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies? Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man” (60:10-11). David was affirming confidence that “we shall do valiantly” (60:12) the next time. Should this not be our place before God? Regardless of our past failures, we need to confess our faults, then valiantly go forward. LORD, in the name of Jesus, we claim this ground on which we stand, as Your ground. We claim ourselves as Your Church. And, we claim by Your grace and power that the gates of hell will not prevail against us. Amen and amen.
