TAKING YOUR JERICHO: GOD HAS A PLAN FOR THAT!
Joshua 5, 6
April 21, 2024
Review: The Promise; the Assignment; three (3) keys to success; Secret Agents; Fearing God and Following Right Leadership; Memorials
We Must Get our (spiritual) act together! (Joshua 5:2-9) (see, note re spiritual circumcision)
The victory is won in the Spirit realm (Joshua 5:1, Joshua 5:13 – Joshua 6:2)
Practical Obedience is the necessary partner to victorious faith! (Joshua 6:3-25)
Won in the Spirit, walked out in the natural.
The Presence of the Lord, Believed and accessed, honored is the key to approach, engage, and sustain victory! (Priests were agents)
Armed Guards: protection in the natural; allies approved by the Lord (counsel, defense, strength and well-being, etc.)
Prayer Warriors: an extension of Christ’s Intercessory Ministry!
Some perspective on God’s Judgement in the Old Testament times (see notes)
Processing Passages That Reveal God’s Judgement
✸ We Don’t Know …. A Lot!
I.E. How dark the evil, how long the evil, how deep the evil affected the people, the children, the culture.
Issue is not God’s character, it’s our limited understanding
The incredible, destructive results of sin (sin is an assault on God’s nature)
✸ Focus On What We Do Know!
God is Holy, Righteous, Just
God is Loving, Merciful, Kind, Gracious!
God’s patience is far greater than His wrath. Grace is greater than sin!
God’s mercy is extended to the innocent for their eternal lives. (He will grant revelation/light/truth to those who respond to the light they receive.)
✸ Always View God Through The “Jesus Lens”
He is God in visible, perfect expression! (John 14:9; Hebrews 1:3)
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
✸ O.T. Circumcision: Sign of spiritual covenant; male reproductive organ, carrier of “seed of life” should bear mark of covenant with God in the reproductive act. (Genesis 17:9-12)
In the New Testament, this side of the cross, circumcision for the believer is internal, a matter of the heart being severed from the old, sinful lifestyle! (Romans 2:29; Philippians 3:3)
