The Affect of Our Sin (Joshua 7-8) – April 6

Joshua 7:1 "But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the accursed thing." When we sin, it does not only affect us. In this case, Achan was the only one who sinned. They were commanded not to take any of the spoils, and he took some silver and a garment. The other 600,000+ men did not take anything. Yet the Lord says the children of Israel have sinned, and because of that sin, they are defeated by the small city of AI....

No Fear (Joshua 5-6, Luke 8) – April 5

Joshua 5:2 "See, I have given unto thine hand Jericho" Wait a minute. They hadn't even had a battle yet. They were not right next to the city yet. They had just crossed the river miraculously, and they were set to march on Jericho, but they weren't there yet, neither did they have a battle plan yet. They had seen the waters dry up before them, so they knew God was with them, but there still had to be a little fear in their minds about the battles they were going to face....

The River is Crossed (Joshua 2-4) – April 4

Joshua 4:17 "Command the priests that bear the arl of the testimony, that they come up out of Jordan" This younger generation must have felt a little like their fathers before them. Here they are, standing on one side of the Jordan River with a challenge to go in and possess the land on the other side. These men did not have any army pursuing them, as their fathers did, but they had battles ahead of them....

Strong and Courageous (Deuteronomy 33-34, Joshua 1) – April 3

Joshua 1:6, 9 & 18 "Be strong and of a good courage" Joshua 1:7 "Be strong and very courageous." Do you think Joshua wanted to get this point across? Four times, within the space of 13 verses, he tells the people of Israel they will need to be strong and very courageous. The uncertainty they faced was off the charts. They only knew the land from what the 12 spies had said, and that was not good....

Be Perfect (Deuteronomy 32, Luke 7) – April 2

Deuteronomy 32:4 "He is the Rock, His work is perfect." We often question God, Why am I going through this, lord? Why have all these health issues fallen upon me? Why are my finances crumbling? Why are people turning against me? If you love the Palms, you know that David struggled as well and questioned God many times. My favorite question from David, which he asked several times, is "How Long, Lord?" I have asked that question several times myself....

Your Choice (Deuteronomy 30-31) – April 1

Deuteronomy 30:15 "I set before you this day life and good, and death and evil." Moses knew that his time was about over. God told him that he would not enter the promised land, and now they were on the banks of the Jordan, ready to embark on the greatest journey of their lives. The people of Israel had been wandering in the desert for 40 years, and finally they would be entering God's long-awaited promise....

Return on Investment (Deuteronomy 29, Luke 6) – March 31

Luke 6:38 "For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again." It is easy to take this verse and apply it only to the one that precedes it, but that would be a mistake on our part. Yet all too often we use this verse to satisfy our desire for a return on our "investment" into the kingdom of heaven....

Honesty (Deuteronomy 27-28) – March 30

Deuteronomy 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: There are many who look at the verses following this verse and say that God has cursed us because we wanted to do it our way....

Out of Egypt (Deuteronomy 24-26, Luke 5) – March 29

Deuteronomy 26:8 "And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt." It is not hard to forget where we came from. The life of sin may have been pleasurable to the flesh, but inside our souls longed for more peace, joy, and love in our lives. We were, at best, miserable. Slaves to our sin, we longed for a better life, one that was less hindered by the sinful things we were chained to....

Sticks and Stones (Deuteronomy 17-19) – March 26

Deuteronomy 17:7 "the hands of the witnesses would be first upon him to put him to death." They brought the woman to Jesusa nd accused her of prostitution. ;They said she had been with multiple men and was just a w***e who needed to be stoned to death. That was the punishment for such behavior. Many men gathered around, holding darts, ready to throw them at her....
