“I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.” - Exodus 17:14 NASB
The Amalekites remained a thorn in Israel’s side. Over 300 years after the Promised Land conquest, God told Saul to utterly wipe out Agag and the rest of the Amalekites. Saul failed to do so. Over 500 years later, Haman the Agagite, a descendant of Agag an Amalekite, plotted to destroy the remnant of Israel.
Sinful flesh plays the long game.
Unlike Jericho, God tells His people to go out and fight Amalek. He promises that He will one day wipe out even the memory of Amalek. God promises His people permanent rest from Amalek, rest from the flesh. It hasn’t happened yet.
Challenge:
- Memorize Romans 8:13
- What does rest from the flesh look like in your life?
About this Plan
We have three enemies: the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. The world is like Jericho - a fortified wall around us. The flesh is entrenched inside of us. As we see victory over the foe outside, we begin to understand the enemy within. This in-depth stand-alone plan is also part 6 of a 10 part series.
