Joshua 8: Remembering the Word

Last updated on: September 27, 2012 at 8:35 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“34 Afterward, Joshua read all the words of the law—the blessings and the curses—just as it is written in the Book of the Law. 35 There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua did not read to the whole assembly of Israel, including the women and children, and the foreigners who lived among them.” -Joshua 8:34-35 When life falls apart, it’s easy for Christians to run to God for help. But when life goes well, it’s easy... Read more

Joshua 7: Sin in the Way

Last updated on: September 26, 2012 at 2:36 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“Tell them, ‘Consecrate yourselves in preparation for tomorrow; for this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: There are devoted things among you, Israel. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove them.” -Joshua 7:13 The same people who had defeated the mighty city of Jericho had just been defeated by the much smaller city of Ai. Why? God revealed to Joshua that sin among his people was the source of the problem. Still today, Christians realize... Read more

Joshua 6: How God Uses Fame

Last updated on: September 25, 2012 at 8:03 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“So the Lord was with Joshua, and his fame spread throughout the land.” -Joshua 6:27 After Joshua and the Israelites defeated Jericho, the episode ends with, “So the Lord was with Joshua, and his fame spread throughout the land.” This summary offers two important spiritual insights, one known and one less known. First, Joshua’s success was seen as being because the Lord was with him. Psalm 1 and other places throughout Scripture highlight this important trait that reveals success is... Read more

Last updated on: September 24, 2012 at 12:40 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

The Lord not only parted the Jordan River, he also used the act to place fear into the... Read more

Joshua 4: Twelve Stones

Last updated on: September 21, 2012 at 11:23 am   By Dillon Burroughs

4 So Joshua called together the twelve men he had appointed from the Israelites, one from each tribe, 5 and said to them, “Go over before the ark of the Lord your God into the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, 6 to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask you, ‘What do these stones mean?’ 7 tell... Read more

Joshua 3: Consecrate Yourselves

Last updated on: September 20, 2012 at 12:39 pm   By Dillon Burroughs

“Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.” -Joshua 3:5 Joshua was not in charge. His first big test from God was to do something Moses did–part water for Israel to walk through on dry land. This was not an easy step of faith. Yet Joshua obeyed fully and called others to join him. He declared his people should consecrate themselves in preparation for the event they had awaited for forty years. I wonder how many... Read more

“This is the blessing that Moses the man of God pronounced on the Israelites before his death.” -Deuteronomy 33:1 Before his death, Moses focused some of his final words on blessing others. Though he had been stern at times to the people under his leadership, he desired to leave a legacy of blessing toward the people he had led for the past forty years. Notice three specific aspects mentioned in this first verse regarding this spiritual leader. First, we are... Read more
