"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?

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 power of obedience, alignment, sound and so much more. Because of this chapter, it really resonated within me that sound has power. After a great shout, the wall fell down. It's wonderful to know that anytime we shout for the Lord something great happens.
Amen Min.Termaria. They had to obeyed Gods command so the walls can collapse, and the Israelites conquered the city This was a miraculous event was not really about strategy but about trusting and obedience to God. Sometime God have us to do or go that it seems unformal to us. But God just want to have faith in him Luke 28 Says He replied Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it
I also found this territorial possession to be very profound. I thought about what the people might have been thinking in the beginning, and how different the outcome could have been if they chose not to obey. This is another proven point of the importance of never leaning on our own understanding but fully trusting in God. Their victory did not come from their skills, strength, or strategy, but from their obedience to God’s instructions. By following His direction, they were able to reap His blessings enormously. Proverbs 3:5-6 states, Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. In addition to Deuteronomy 28:1-2 says, And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.
