"Be courageous! Let us fight bravely for our people and the cities of our God. May the LORD’s will be done." ~2 Samuel 10:12, NLT
Purpose is something easy to lose sight of. Purpose! Meaning! These things are vital to our psyche as humans, yet how difficult it is to keep at the forefront of our minds! Purpose is where we're trying to go, meaning is why, and it's all important. Our purpose as described in this verse is twofold - for the Lord's will to be done, and for us to fight bravely for our God.
We need courage to do that. Courage that God tells us we need through an army commander and his brother. Don't believe me? Go look it up! Joab tells his brother to be courageous when they go out to fight the Arameans - and surely it was God's will that they should be successful.
Just as its His will for you to be successful. If you believe that, anyways.
