"It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him." Joshua 6:5
"It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him." Joshua 6:5
Just imagine having spent forty years in the wilderness with God providing all of your needs and then a new generation arises from the sand of the wilderness to cross the Jordan into a new land to defeat the walled city of Jerico! Moses is dead and a new leader is anointed to lead all of Israel!
God commanded the sons of Israel to be circumcised before they went into Jerico, and God changed the name of the land to Gilgal which means"Liberty" because God rolled away the reproach of Egypt from them. The old generation was gone, and a new generation was now ready to trust and obey the voice of the Most High!
There is much to see from this story of obedience and faith in that when we take God at His word, miraculous things happen. The scripture is full of the miracles of God that took place when His people believed! The children of Israel who came out of Egypt died in the wilderness because they refused to believe and a two-week journey to the promised land took 40 years!
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5,6
