We have heard with our ears, O God,
Our fathers have told us
The work You did in their days,
In the days of old.
2 You drove out the [pagan] nations with Your own hand;
Then you planted and established them (Israel);
[It was by Your power that] You uprooted the [pagan] peoples,
Then You spread them abroad.
3 For our fathers did not possess the land [of Canaan] by their own sword,
Nor did their own arm save them,
But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,
Because You favored and delighted in them.
4 You are my King, O God;
Command victories and deliverance for Jacob (Israel).
5 Through You we will gore our enemies [like a bull];
Through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow,
Nor will my sword save me.
7 But You have saved us from our enemies,
And You have put them to shame and humiliated those who hate us.
8 In God we have boasted all the day long,
And we will praise and give thanks to Your name forever. Selah.
(Psalm 44, Amplified)
The favour of God won the land of Canaan for the Israelites even when they least expected. They had no business to engage in any battle with the inhabitants. Yahweh, FAVOUR PERSONIFIED, stepped into the scene and chased their enemies away from them, allotted parcels of land for them in the land flowing with milk and honey for He delighted in them. Allow Him in the boat of your life as the year rolls by and His favour will cause His beauty to be upon you; make your cup to run over and hand over all those things you have spent your life to pursue.
When favour gets on the scene, the life equation becomes balanced and you partake in the choicest booty!
As the years rolls by, let God get on the SCENE and put an end to your struggles!
