Listen from:
V.1 There is the place! Now, take another minute to read 1 Kings 14:21 and see the same words as we read in the last verse of yesterday’s chapter. Then read 2 Samuel 5:6-7 for the historical facts.
V.6 The men of Gibeon had made a profession of God, so now, when they are about to be attacked by five kings, they call Israel to help them.
V.7-15 Joshua gets comfort, strength and assurance directly from the Lord. In grace the Lord not only wins the battle for Israel but performs a mighty miracle with the sun and moon!
V.16-42 Those who oppose God, after hearing of Him and His power, must suffer the consequences sooner or later. These people, with their kings, did not have to be destroyed. Rahab and the Gibeonites are examples of those who listened to God’s warning and were spared. It is the same today.
V.43 Do you remember why this was a good place to which to return? If not, go back to the fourth and fifth chapters, with the outlines.
