"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him". Hebrews 11:6 reveals how faith is so important that it is impossible to please God without it. What would you say is the greatest area, among believers, where faith is lacking?

In the book of Joshua 6 the children Israel God had given into thine hand Jericho and the king thereof and might men of valour.The city shall be accursed even it and all that are therein to the Lord only Rahab the harlot shall live she and all that are with her in the house because she hid the messengers that we sent. The Lord also instructed what treasure they could take and not take because it was accursed. Now in chapter 7:1 The children of Israel committed a trespass in the accursed thing(s...
One territorial possession in the book of Joshua that really stands out is the conquest of Jericho. This moment is not just about military victory, but about obedience and faith in God’s promises. God commanded Joshua and the Israelites to march around the city once a day for six days and seven times on the seventh day, then shout so the walls would fallâ€an unconventional battle plan by any standard. Their victory wasn’t because of military might, but because they trusted and obeyed God com...
Joshua had guidance and instruction by God. With a strategy and a plan to move his army into the southern highland conquest Canaan cities. And sweep north, all he had was success, but he was disobedience by making a treaty with the Gibeonites. By reading it seem that Joshua and Isreal didn't ask or seek God for guidance the result was defeated. This is lesion to be learned when the father gives us direct instruction we need to follow fully to the detail. Isaiah 1;19If you are willing and obedien...
One story in Joshua that stands out to me is when Israel tried to take the city of Ai. After their big win at Jericho, they thought Ai would be easy. But they lost the battle. Joshua 7:5 says, the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six of their men... so the hearts of the people melted and became like water.
The reason? A man named Achan had disobeyed God. Even though God told Israel not to take anything from Jericho, Achan secretly took some of the devoted things and hid them in his te...
One territorial possession that comes to mind was when Caleb claimed Hebron as his inheritance. Joshua was reminded by Caleb of the promise God made to him for being obedient and faithful as he followed the Lord during the spy mission many years before. Joshua 14:12 states, So now give me this hill country about which the Lord spoke that day for you heard on that day that the Anakim were there, with great fortified cities; perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out just as the ...
At least one territorial possession that stood out to me was the falling of the Jericho wall. In Joshua 6:20 it states, So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. This is one of my favorite territorial possessions because it demonstrated the...
Amen Min. Temaria.The wall of Jericho was also very in importance. That's why God had to really remind Joshua in 1:5 No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life.
