28 Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the first commandment of all?” 29 Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. 31 And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:28-31 NKJV

Caleb, son of Jephunneh and Kenizzite, was faithful to God from the start. He was one of the original 12 scouts and 45 years later his faith was still unwavering. Even though the land he inherited contained giants, Caleb knew the Lord would help him conquer them.

When it comes to dealing with sin, we must not pause to debate, consider options, negotiate or rationalize. Our response must be swift and complete, just like Joshua’s response.

August 11, 2019 – Joshua 10:1-15 “If God Is For Us, Who Can Be Against Us?”Even though the Israelites sinned and were now forced into a battle that wasn’t their own, God was still with Israel. It was by His mighty power that the Israelites won the battle. God will be with Hiss people today, just as He was many years ago.

The Israelites leader did not consult God when the Gibeonites approached them. As a result, they were deceived and signed a treaty they couldn’t back out of. We should always consult God in order to find out what He wants us to do rather than lean on our own understanding.
