Psalm 44:7 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 44:7

But thou hast saved us from our enemies
Spiritual ones, and not we ourselves; and therefore will not trust in ourselves, nor in anything of ours, but in the Lord, and give him the glory of salvation; and hast put them to shame that hated us;
the men of the world, the seed of the serpent, and the serpent himself, when his works were destroyed, and his principalities and powers spoiled by Christ upon the cross; hence the following boasting of the Lord, and glorying in him.

Psalm 44:7 In-Context

5 With your help we'll wipe out our enemies, in your name we'll stomp them to dust.
6 I don't trust in weapons; my sword won't save me -
7 But it's you, you who saved us from the enemy; you made those who hate us lose face.
8 All day we parade God's praise - we thank you by name over and over.
9 But now you've walked off and left us, you've disgraced us and won't fight for us.
