The wars provided impetus for the Israelites to be united, as they faced common enemies. The wars were one of the reasons that the Israelites requested a king (1 Samuel ch.8), which made Israel a united monarchy.
Yes, there were instances in the Bible where the Israelites were commanded by God to engage in battles with other nations.
