 The direct government of God is owned, “Thou art my king, O God,” in the language of Israel, but always true, though the authority now, without being less absolute, is infinitely sweeter. He is our Lord by redemption. (Practical Reflections on the Psalms: Psalms 42-44 by J.N. Darby)
 {v.4-7} the believing remnant claim God as their King, and look to Him that, once again, through His power they may be delivered from their enemies. Their trust will not be in their bow or sword, but in the God who in times past had saved them from their enemies. (Psalms 44 by H. Smith)
 In spite of all their failure, His people should trust in God as the One who alone can bring deliverance, and beware of seeking to remedy their condition by their own efforts (vvs.4-8). (Psalms 44 by H. Smith)
