Be Surrendered to God



There is something admirable in fighting against insurmountable odds unless of course that person is fighting against God Almighty.  So we wonder why people would choose to lose.  But the Canaanites of Gibeon broke ranks with the rest of their Canaanites and decided to surrender to the LORD, God Most High.  They would rather be slaves of the LORD than perish eternally.  And the LORD honors them by adding them to His own protected people.

Be Reminded



The LORD had given very specific instructions for the children of Israel to remind themselves of the covenant with God upon entering the Promised Land of Canaan. Joshua saw the opportunity to obey early and obey fully what the LORD had commanded the Moses, His servant. Rehearse the commands of God now that they were receiving the promises.

Accursed



The LORD declared that the possessions of Jericho would be banned from the Israelites – accursed like the sin of Canaanites and the valuables would be devoted to God and His tabernacle. But one man and his family chose to violate the ban and would treasure for themselves the accursed things. Thus they brought the curse upon themselves and corruption upon all the rest of the nation. How would God deal with this corruption among His own people? The same as He would among the Canaanites, they would be accursed until repentance and sanctification purified them again.

Rescue from Jericho



The children of Israel are learning how to experience victory in the LORD. Being in right relationship with Him, following His directions for life and warfare, and keeping Him in His right place as leader and in their midst. And as they do, they discover that the LORD uses them to rescue more of His people from the midst of Canaanite Jericho. By the mercy of the LORD, He rescues Rahab and her family from His judgment.
