獲取軟件Joshua - VS the World預覽
Jericho-the-fortress was a defensive marvel. Its walls were impenetrable, yet the city was small enough to be marched around seven times in a single day (about 8.5 acres, according to archaeologists). Left standing, it could send marauders out to harass invading armies at will.
Jericho must be destroyed, God decreed it, and Joshua knew it.
Jericho-the-people were Canaanites: a people whose sin took 400 years to reach its full measure. At any time before or during the 7-day siege, they could have repented and trusted in the God of Israel. Rahab did. Instead, the inhabitants of Jericho chose to continue their sin and trust in their walls and military might.
God is patient with us, but there is a sin that leads to death, and when man’s sin reaches its full measure, there will be no doubt that our patient God is righteous and just in His wrath.
Challenge:
- Memorize John 16:33
- Think of a time when you trusted in your own strength. How did that go?
關於此計劃
We have three enemies, the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. In the book of Joshua, Jericho represents the world. God trained Israel in the wilderness, baptized them in the Jordan, and circumcised them as they camped before the locked gates of Jericho. How would they overcome Jericho? How do we overcome the world? This in-depth stand-alone plan is also part 5 of a 10-part series.
