Why is it important to pray before making decisions? Joshua was deceived by the Gibeon pretended to come from a distant land. They made a treaty of peace with Joshua and it turned out that they were actually neighbors. What would have happened if Joshua had asked God before he made the treaty? Next, I was fascinated by how God wiped out Joshua’s enemies. He caused hail to destroy the army that was attacking Joshua. He listened to Joshua and caused the sun to stay up so Joshua could pursue his enemies longer. Wow! That’s incredible. Verse 42 sums it up “Joshua conquered all these kings and lands in one campaign, because the Lord the God of Israel, fought for Israel.” What would it take for God to fight for our country?
Luke 16:19 – The story of the rich man going to hell is sobering. The story demonstrates the selfishness of this man. The rich man selfishly asked Abraham to send Lazarus to bring him water. Unfortunately, it is finalized. The rich man will be in torment forever. When he realized his condition, he asked for someone to go to his 5 brothers. Who do you know who needs to hear the great message of God’s love today? The new church that I’m attending is doing an outreach in a few weeks. I’m very excited about participating.
My prayer today is to have the courage to share the awesome things that God does and to be in prayer about all my decisions. I’m so thankful for my incredible family and friends.
