“God, if you will help us defeat these Canaanites, we will completely destroy their towns and everything in them to show that they belong to you,” the Israelites prayed. This prayer for God’s help followed an attack from the army of the king of Arad, taking some of the Israelites prisoners.
God answered their prayer and they completely wiped out the Canaanite army and the towns. [Reflection based on the Bible Reference – Numbers 21:1-3]
