As the Israelites approached Jericho, they faced a walled city with proportions that could not be overcome by human means. A different approach was necessary and as Johua pondered the situation, a divine messenger appeared with the solution to his problem. Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he reveals the secret to tearing down strongholds.
God has blessed us immeasurably. But if we don’t become disciples of Jesus and set our hearts to honor him, then these very blessings will become curses. If we misuse what God has given us, it becomes harmful to us. God is looking for much more than outward rituals. He wants our hearts.
Two things should characterize a Christian more than anything else. One is a deep sense of our unworthiness and sin. The other is an even deeper sense of the grace of God. The Bible calls us dead in sin it doesn’t get much worse than that. But by the grace given through Jesus Christ, he makes us alive to follow him.
It’s tempting to think that nobody cares about God. It’s especially true when we see other Christians adapting the ways of our culture. When God’s work gets hard, it’s tempting to think we’re the only one who honors Him. But this is based on our limited vision, not on truth from Scripture. Paul argues in Romans that we are not alone.
God has promised to be faithful to us. But it seems as though God rejected the Israelites. If he rejected them, how can we trust him to keep his promises to us? Paul argues that we can completely trust God because he has, indeed, kept all of his promises to his people.
