THE FALL OF JERICHO

Date : Jan 01, 2000
Passage : Joshua 6:6~27
Keyverse : 27


1. Marching around Jericho (6-14)

Joshua first mobilized the priests who carried the ark. Seven priests blowing trumpets marched in front of the ark. An armed guard went ahead, and a rear guard followed. No one spoke. They circled the city once and returned to camp. The next morning they again circled the city once and returned to camp. This continued each day for six days. Joshua depended on the Lord, not on himself, and he obeyed the word of the Lord.

2. The walls fall down (15-20)

On the 7th day they marched silently around the city seven times. Then they gave a great shout. The walls collapsed and each man charged straight in. They took the city. The wicked and adulterous city of Jericho was devoted to destruction. The spies kept their promise. Rahab and her family were saved because of her faith in God. God was with his obedient servant, Joshua, and his fame spread.

Application: Lord, be with me in the spiritual battle. Help me to fight in your way, and help me to live by faith.
One Word: The Lord was with Joshua
