—Joshua 2:1-6, 8-16
by: Jasmine Lynch.
God sent His Son to redeem all of mankind. No sin is too great; no nationality or ethnicity is excluded; no lifestyle or gender is left out. Jesus’ genealogy (Matthew 1:1-16) confirms this fact. It includes Ruth (a Moabitess), Perez (a child of deception), and Rahab (the harlot). Rahab was rewarded for her faith, belief, and trust in Israel’s God. She acted on her faith and treated the spies as God directed her to do. As a result, her entire household was saved. This lesson teaches us that we should not write individuals off because of our pre-conceived notions of them. God will use anyone who is available.
