A Partnership in Victory
Commentators explain that this verse describes a divine-human partnership. Believers are called to "do valiantly"—to act with courage and strength. However, this courage is not self-generated; it comes "through God." As Albert Barnes notes, God enables our action, but He is the one who ultimately secures the victory by treading down the opposition. Our part is to act in faith; God's part is to bring the triumph.
