“The officials will then add to what they have said to the soldiers: ‘Is there a man here who is afraid and fainthearted? He should go back home; otherwise his fear may demoralize his comrades as well.'”
Deuteronomy 20:8 CJB
The point here isn’t to make an excuse not to go to battle, but if their heart isn’t right or they are distracted with other things, then they would be better off staying home! God doesn’t want them half hearted people, He wants to be bold and totally sold out for Him!
“Be strong, be bold, don’t be afraid or frightened of them, for Adonai your God is going with you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
Deuteronomy 31:6 CJB
Everywhere we go God has gone before us to prepare the way, so we have nothing to be afraid of!
“For I, Adonai, your God, say to you, as I hold your right hand, Have no fear; I will help you.”
Isaiah 41:13 CJB
So let’s be bold knowing God has you by the hand guiding and leading you everywhere you go!
May your day be richly blessed!
