Overcoming Obstacles
-
- Joshua 6:1-2
Joshua had a God who communicated with him.
“The Lord said to Joshua…”
“See, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the valiant warriors.”
Commune with God. Let that be your first plan of action, rather than your last resort.
- Joshua 6:6-7
Joshua: Man of Faith
Man of Obedience
He simply followed as God instructed… and the people followed.
This was an act of faith and an act of obedience. Their obedience to God produced wonders.
- Joshua 6:20-21
This is where becomes !
The walls were never the problem. They never are.
We people are the problem. We always are.
God has the power to do as He chooses, but He desires that we act in obedient faith.
