The psalmist makes us understand that victories are realised through the help of God when we pray and not by our resources or abilities. We see throughout 1 Chronicles the qualities of the impressive army King David had to go to battle with but he didn’t win because of them. King David didn’t win the battles because of his superior wisdom or tactics or because his enemies were weak or stupid. Victory only came due to him taking territories in the place of praise, worship, prayer and intersession; God in answer to his cry granted him victory always.

For example, the account of how David is anointed as king over Israel in 1 Chronicles 11 is so vastly different from the marathon journey that David has to complete in 2 Samuel in order to become king over all of Israel. The fact that the people of Israel seem to know exactly what God says to David in announcing his destiny of reigning over Israel is especially annoying.
