In view of the similarity between this petition and the one that opens this psalm, it is probable that the people prayed it too. They looked to Yahweh as their ultimate authority and the One from whom victory must come.
The elect can appeal to God for victory against their spiritual enemies confidently when they are walking with Him because He is willing and able to subdue the powers of darkness. God has assured us of our ultimate victory (cf. 2 Cor. 2:14).
