When you quit fighting among yourselves you will be ready to fight the really big enemies outside yourselves. Marching comes before fighting . God drilled Israel for three decades. You must learn to march in military order before you can fight in harmony. When they showed enough accountability to walk in formation they were ready to fight a war.
Submission comes before privilege .
After Israel learned accountability they were given a covenant grant of Canaan. The ways of rebellion pass slowly . They had to submit to God and each other in order to survive. Individualists do not survive in deserts. If you can live in a wilderness, you can conquer in a civilization.
