For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
The living and reigning God goes with His people to fight for them against their enemies and to save them, working for them as a mighty conqueror. On that assurance His servants can move forward to victory in the work of salvation, pressing the battle together in perfect unity while trusting God to act for them.
The promise is conditional, for when the people desecrate the house of God and violate the Sabbath through disorder in worship, they shut God out of their assemblies. Such conduct kindles His wrath. He is then not pleased to go with their armies against their enemies.
