Jericho - When A Wall Needs To Fall (3 of 7)
Series: Crossing The Jordan: Life Lessons From The Book of Joshua
Dr. Larry Osborne
Joshua 6:1 - 27
THE STORY
Big City, Big Wall, Big Problem
Joshua 6:1-27
THREE ELEPHANTS IN THE PASSAGE
Joshua 2:1-24/ Joshua 6:17, 21, Genesis 15:12-16 & 2 Peter 3:9
1. Rahab’s big lie
2. Jericho’s shaky walls
3. God’s wrath
THREE BREAKTHROUGH PRINCIPLES
When A Jericho Blocks Your Path
1. Never confuse God’s patience with weakness – or approval
Galatians 6:7-8/ Genesis 15:12-16, 2 Peter 3:9
2. The first and the best always belongs to God
Joshua 6:17-19, 24/ Proverbs 3:9-10/ Matthew 26:7-13 & Revelation 5:11-13
3. The path to victory is found in obedience –
not in yesterday’s (or someone else’s) battle plan
Joshua 1:7-8 & 2 Timothy 3:16-17/ Joshua 6:2-5, Joshua 8:1-3 & Acts 16:6-10
The Two Sides of Obedience:
1) What does the Bible say?
2) What does the Spirit say?
Food for Thought
(Questions and Scriptures for further study)
