JOSHUA: CONQUERING FAITH

(Hebrews 11:30)
''By faith, the wall of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days''

Bible study
Hebrews 7:21-28

Proverbs of the Day
Proverbs 21

The Moses and Joshua relationship set the pattern of apostolic fathering and mentoring. Moses imparted faith into Joshua because Joshua served, followed and ministered  to him. Joshua demonstrated bold, brave and fearless faith, like his father Moses. In the account of (Joshua 5:13-6:27) we see the pattern of faith demonstration by Joshua in conquering and subduing the walls of Jericho and her people.

This faith was built by hearing God and receiving his instruction. You need a constant communicative relationship with God to manifest conquering faith because faith cometh by hearing and hearings God's voice. When you act in faith, your faith actions may look stupid to the common mind but it has conquering potentials. Someone may have asked Joshua, what has shouting and singing got to do with penetrating Jericho and subduing her?

God disarmed Jericho with the obedient faith of Joshua. Shout at the devil in Jesus name; shout at that sickness in the Name of Jesus, the walls have ears, shout out with the voice of faith. Jericho walls are conquerable not with medicine, guns, bulldozers but with shouts of faith, with simple obedience to God's instruction. God instructed Joshua to use a shout of  faith, I want you to do something crazy today. You ask, what crazy thing do you want me to do? ''SHOUT''. Shout the name of Jesus at that situation! Rebuke that situation with a shout of faith. That Jericho wall will fall. I will be expecting to hear your testimonies after today.
