joshua 10:29-43 It's not what it looks like


   Take me to 5-Day Devotional

In this powerful exploration of Joshua 10:29-43, we delve into a challenging passage that confronts us with God's justice and mercy. The conquest of Canaan raises difficult questions about God's character, but we're reminded that God's ways are holy and just, even when we don't fully understand them. This message encourages us to view these events through the lens of God's covenant with Abraham, His commandments, and His unchanging character. We're challenged to consider how partial obedience is still disobedience in our own lives, and how God's judgment on sin is balanced with His grace and mercy. The parallels drawn between the Old Testament conquest and New Testament prophecies in Revelation remind us of God's consistent nature throughout Scripture. This message calls us to deeper faith, urging us to trust in God's promises and to be the church in our communities, focusing on the eternal salvation of souls rather than just temporal blessings.
