But now you have rejected and humbled us;
    you no longer go out with our armies.
10 You made us retreat before the enemy,
    and our adversaries have plundered us.
11 You gave us up to be devoured like sheep
    and have scattered us among the nations.
12 You sold your people for a pittance,
    gaining nothing from their sale. Psalm 44:9-12

Have you ever taken a position which God stood against? What was that like?

I do not trust in my bow;
    I do not count on my sword to save me.
7 You are the one who gives us victory over our enemies;
    you disgrace those who hate us.
8 O God, we give glory to you all day long
    and constantly praise your name. Interlude Psalm 44:6-8

What does giving God glory all day long look like?

8 O God, we give glory to you all day long
    and constantly praise your name. Interlude Psalm 44:6-8

Tell me about a time you refused to use your “bow” or your “sword” and chose to let the Lord defend you and it worked out well.
