“Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.”
The exclamation that the psalm singers now know that God will save His anointed and answer from His holy heaven with mighty saving power establishes the shift from petition to confident assertion. The anointed suggests the king as divinely chosen. The holy heaven suggests the location of divine dwelling. The mighty saving power suggests God's military strength on behalf of the king. This verse demonstrates the certainty of faith in divine aid.
