03.21.2015 Old Testament: Jos 5.1

To read the Bible in a year, read Joshua 4–6 on March 21, In the year of our Lord 2015

By Don Ruhl

When the Lord’s people believe and obey Him with all their hearts, they start to do wonderful and mighty things that cause their enemies to tremble, such as when Israel entered the Land of Canaan,

So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel (Joshua 5.1). 

At the present time, the world is working to silence the church, because they fear us, although we will not harm anyone, but we will preach and live the truth. The truth offends them. However, if we keep marching with the Master, we shall prevail.
