By the grace of God we have entered and nearing the end Month of March 2017!
For those of you that don’t know by now, March is our month of victory. In observing this theme, we are collectively sojourning in the book of Joshua.
So far we have witnessed how God led Joshua and the children of Israel crossing the Jordan in chapter 3.
God guaranteed Joshua that His presence will be with him and as a result, the miracle of crossing the Jordan on dry ground came to pass. (Joshua 3:5-7, 17)
Read the following chapters and consider the following:
Chapter 6: Israel’s victory at Jericho
Why did the wall of Jericho fall?
Chapter 7: After the victory at Jericho, Israel was defeated at Ai.
What caused their defeat at Ai?
Why was the anger of the Lord kindled against the children of Israel.
Chapter 6 question's answer is faith! Does anyone else agree?

ReplyDeleteAnswer to chapter 6 ÷ For the children of Israel to gain access into the city of Jericho and to POSSESS the land which God had given unto the children of Israel. Chapter 6:1 says Jericho was tightly shut up because of the Isrealites. Which means the wall is an OBSTACLE that must pave way for the children of Israel to enter into the city of Jericho.
Chapter 7 answers ÷
(A) The Isrealites were defeated because they fail to seek the face of God before going to fight with Ai. They leaned on their own power and understanding.
(B) The anger of the Lord was kindled against the children of Israel because Achan, one of the Isrealites took of the accursed thing which God had commanded them not to take out of Jericho.
Answers to chapter 7.
ReplyDeleteThey were defeated because one of the isrealites took some stuffs after which God has commanded them not to pick nothing from the city, and they did seek God face before going to fight.
