'Under Star Filled Skies'
'The Splendour of the King'
Joshua 2
Inpact of history
- Rahab: involvement in prostitution.
- Israel: wandering in the desert for fourty years.
Rahab knows how to deal with the situation.
- She protects the spies from being captured.
- God had chosen her.
- - He had seen the potential in her heart.
He sees the potential in all of us.
Hebrews 11:31
God can use anybody who puts their faith in Him.
Matthew 1:5
Rahab is one of the few women included in the genaloogy (along with Tamar, Ruth and Bathsheba).
Rahab overcame her past.
No matter our past, God can use us.
With the spies' report, Israel overcame their past. (Joshua learned from Moses' mistake. His spies had faith)
Faith decisions are always risky - This is especially true of Rahab's decision.
Have you exchanged a risky faith for a comfortable Christian life?
We need to have the mission of Christ.
