David moved from a historical review of God"s giving Israel victory to confidence that He would continue to do so daily. Any who resist Yahweh can count on His powerful opposition and their own inevitable defeat. Additional references to victories over Og, the king of Bashan, the crossing of the Red Sea, numerous victories in battle, and the slaying of Jezebel ( 2 Kings 9:33-36) would have encouraged the Israelites further. The same God who gave them success in the past was ready to do so still. [source][source][source]
