Let's have a Dance Party with Jesus!

Wherever You Go
Open the Eyes of My Heart
Brave
Help Me See

Knowing what God can do for us can make us brave!

Can you depend on God and all of his promises?

God chose Israel out of all the peoples of the world, and he chose a land for them out of all the places in the world.

Joshua knew that nothing could stop God from fulfilling his promises to Israel.

What did Joshua do when he heard that five kings and their armies planned an attack against the Gibeonites, who were friends of Israel?

Can you trust God and believe in all of his promises?

đź“– Read Joshua 10:1-15 for the whole story.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 3:5,6

Recap the Lesson

Review some of the key promises God made to Israel and how believing them built confidence in Joshua and the armies of Israel:

  1. God promised that Israel would be a great nation: Joshua was familiar with the story of how God had taken the family of Abraham and multiplied them into many people. He remembered how God took them out of Egypt and prepared them to be a great nation. Because God kept his promises in the past, Joshua was confident God would be with Israel now.

  2. God promised Joshua that his enemies would be defeated: God said that he would deliver the Amorites to Israel in a complete victory, so Joshua fought in confidence, and he fought to the bitter end.

  3. God promised that Israel would inherit the promised land of Canaan: God promised the land to Israel, and Joshua believed. True, there were fearful inhabitants in the land, but Joshua took courage in God’s promise. He fought, knowing that the final outcome would be victory.
