David starts by calling on God to answer him and give him "relief" from his "distress". Then he turns and addresses men. he declares that their schemes are futile. They attacked him and turned his glory to shame, and lived by delusions.
David knows that he is secure because the Lord has set him apart. Every single one of us who belongs to God can claim the same. Jesus said that even the hairs on our head are counter. We belong to the Lord and He looks after us. No matter what we might be going through at this moment, we should declare that the Lord hears us and will act on our behalf. It might not be in the way we expect, but He will act on our behalf.
We must submit to the Lord, not to the circumstances. We should call on Him to fill our hearts with joy. Sometimes we can be filled with sorrow or anguish, but we should call upon the Lord to fill us with joy.
