One man, Achan, decides to keep some of the devoted things from Jericho for himself. His choice ends up having dire consequences for Israel and about 36 men are killed as a result.

Jericho

07/13/2025
So, we finally begin the conquest of the Promise Land with an attack on Jericho....Or, do we? What kind of miliary campaign starts with marching in circles? The answer? One that is obedient to Yahweh and His guidance!
In an act of miraculous power, the Israelites walked across dry ground and now stand at the foot of Jericho. Time to attack! Yet God says, "Wait."  God asks His people to consecrate themselves for the Passover meal, all before moving into battle, while sitting in the shadow of Jericho's walls! We, too, must place faithfulness above vision, worship above practicality, and God above our kingdoms of self.
Israel has experienced another impossible water crossing by walking on dry ground. God commands 12 stones to be taken from the riverbed right where the Ark was held by the priests. The stones are to be stacked on the west side of the Jordan to help future generations remember what God has done. We too must remember what God has done.
Finally... finally... after 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, the Israelites stood at the threshold of the land God had promised Abraham over 400 years before, and which they'd been poised to enter four decades earlier. All that stood between them and "the land of milk and honey" was the Jordan River... at flood stage.
