Banger verse I have never heard get talked about, Nehemiah 1:11

Nehemiah 1:11 - "O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who DELIGHT TO FEAR YOUR NAME, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." (Context: Nehemiah is praying, repenting for Israel's/his sin and asking for mercy.)

Never thought about it as being delighted to fear God, but that is actually a great way to look at "fearing God." If you find actual satisfaction in obeying God out of fear (and love) for Him, Your relationship with God feels more personal and less transactional.

All of SEAF Forces (Helldivers 2) vs all the Great Houses/Imperium Forces combined

SEAF forces are at the strength and size of the second galactic war. We'll assume they won and had peace for enough time to prep for a war of this scale.

Great Houses/Imperium are at the strength and size at the time Paul is emporer in Dune Messiah.

Both parties have access to all available tools and weapons (including things like prescience and FTL travel), but will research and expand their arsenal based on things they capture from the enemy. For the sake of convenience we'll say that laser based weapons in the Helldivers universe do not cause nuclear explosions when they contact a shield, but SEAF can acquire and use lasguns in that manner if they want.

Round 1: SEAF on defense, Great Houses on offense (Great Houses must take 51% of SEAF planets AND Super Earth to be considered a win)

Round 2: Great Houses on defense, SEAF on offense (SEAF must take 51% of the Great Houses planets AND Arrakis for it to be considered a win)

Round 3: Neutral Galaxy (whoever holds more planets at the end of a 100 year conflict, or if the other force retreats)
