    2025 Q4 L06 - Special Deep Dive - The Enemy Within - Pride and Self-Sufficiency

    When a single hidden choice stalls an entire mission… In Joshua 7–8, Israel moves from Jericho’s triumph to Ai’s defeat—not because the walls got taller, but because hearts grew careless. This Deep Dive traces how small habits(good or bad) steer the soul, why God told Joshua to “Get up”, and how the Lord restores courage, community, and calling. What you’ll learn Breach of the covenant: why taking what is God’s (ḥērem) harms the whole body (Joshua 6:18–19; 7:1–5, 10–13). Anatomy of coveting: “I saw, I coveted, I took, I hid”—and how contentment breaks the cycle (Joshua 7:20–21; Exodus 20:17; Luke 12:15; 1 Timothy 6:6–10). Door of hope: after confession comes mission—God speaks again, restores courage, and leads (Joshua 8:1–2, 12, 26–27; Psalm 30:5; Micah 7:8–9). Corporate holiness: why public Scripture and shared obedience matter (Joshua 8:30–35; Deuteronomy 27–28; Colossians 3:16). Walk-away practices: examine, confess, prioritise—then follow God’s strategy, not last time’s success (Psalm 139:23–24; 1 John 1:9; Proverbs 3:5–6; Matthew 6:33). Key Scriptures (NKJV) Jeremiah 17:9–10; Joshua 6:18–19; 7:1–5, 10–13, 20–21; 8:1–2, 12, 26–27; Exodus 20:17; Luke 12:15; 1 Timothy 6:6–10; Psalm 30:5; Micah 7:8–9; Deuteronomy 27–28; Joshua 8:30–35; Colossians 3:16; Psalm 139:23–24; 1 John 1:9; Proverbs 3:5–6; Matthew 6:33. Try this this week Ask God to reveal one small habit to surrender. Replace self-reliance with one deliberate act of dependence (pray first, obey promptly). Encourage one person—we fall together or rise together. 👍 Like, 💬 comment your “one small change,” and 🔔 subscribe for the next lesson’s Deep Dive. 🎧 Prefer audio?
