—Joshua 6:22-25
by: Cheri Appel.
Squeezed into Rahab’s home on the wall of Jericho, her family waited, trusting the window’s red cord of God’s salvation would spare them. Thousands of Israelites surrounded the city, their feet stomping, pounding, shaking the earth. Finally, the relentless marching ended, the Israelites’ thundering war cry and trumpets’ blast revealed The End of earthly life for many. Jericho’s walls broke, shifted, and tumbled! The man-made great wall of protection was demolished! Then God’s representatives appeared, shouting, “Follow us!” Rahab’s family scrambled out of the city, into God’s camp. Today, our enemy tramples unendingly. Do you hear the call of faith and obedience to be followed?
