Day 4 Casting Down Imaginations
In Joshua 6 we read about the fall of Jericho. Jericho was in Canaan and the Canaanites practiced idolatry. They believed Joshua’s God was a “Nature God” because they had heard about the Red Sea being parted and the Jordan parted, and they considered Him a “War God” because of how they had already defeated Sihon and Og.
Can we just say with endless enthusiasm and honesty that the people of Jericho highly underestimated the One True God Jehovah! Our God does not confine Himself to nature or war. He is the God of all. He is The Author and Perfecter of our faith, The Beginning and the End, The Maker of time and space Who is not restricted by time and space, much less a 25 foot high, 20 feet thick wall that they had constructed to protect themselves.
My friend, God doesn’t care about the walls you have built either. He can demolish them anytime that He wants. When Joshua went into battle, he already knew that God was delivering Jericho into their hands. The truth is Joshua was fighting an adversary that was already defeated. Does that sound familiar to you? It should.
Do you know that when we fight spiritual battles, we must remember that the battle has already been won by Jesus? The Word says in Colossians 2:15: “And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.” I’ve heard it said and I love to say, Satan is shooting with blanks. We will fight battles, but the war has already been won, and your adversary is unarmed. All he can do is get you to forget that you have won. The battle that most of us are losing, is in our forgetting. We forget that we are more than conquerors.
The first lesson that we can learn from Joshua in the battle at Jericho is, any walls that have been erected by the enemy in your life have to be demolished if you want true victory. I am talking about demolition. I’m talking about supernatural wrecking balls knocking down things that are setting themselves up against your peace. I’m talking demo, not reno. We aren’t just redecorating my friend, we are demolishing. Strongholds of any sort, especially strongholds of the mind, must be demolished so that you can fight and win spiritually.
