Ps eugene went through it during church, and as he read out the psalm, I was assured. I was trust in the Name of the Lord. I will trust in the Lord.
Verse 1-4 seem to be prayers of people, asking God for answers, protection, help and support. Praying that God will remember our sacrifices and accept our offerings. Praying that He will give us the desires of our hearts and to make our plans succeed.
Verse 6 then seems to give the answer - God saves, God answers.
Verse 7-11 ends of the psalm by bringing us back to trusting the Lord for all our prayer requests, and His answer to us. Many nations and people trust in their armies and power, trust in themselves. But finally, their armies and power will fail them... Think about the nations in the past, no matter how glorious and mighty, eventually, they fell. The dynasty in China, even nearer to us, the british government during WWII that failed to keep the territories in Asia. And even Japan and Germany, who eventually fell and were subdued.
David knew this, he knew that true might of his country was in God's power. Only God can preserve a nation or an invidual. Thinking about this, David did not see the defeat of his country ya? He always prayed and he had a mighty nation, which he passed to his son, solomon. God can win all the battles for us too!
"I trust in the Name of the Lord. Emmanuel - God with us, Jehovah Jireh - God our provider, Jehovah Rapha - God our healer, Jehovah Shalom - God our peace, King of kings"
