Five Against One - Not Good Odds - Unless God - Is On Your Side Five Against One - Not Good Odds - Unless God - Is On Your Side Joshua

Recap Guile of Gibeon - Joshua

“Fear when threatened is one of the most basic human responses.”

Issue 1 (1-5) Strategic Location Threatened

Adoni-zedek King of Jerusalem

“Fear can paralyze, but it can also be a great motivator.”

Application “But we do not want you to be uniformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope.” 1 Thessalonians 4.13

Application “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.” 1 John 4.18

Issue 2 (6-7) The Word of a Leader

Issue 2 (6-7) “Tricksey” becomes Chutzpah Here is where it gets real tricky Remember…

“Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.” “The most dangerous time is the time after the victory.”

Issue 2 (6-7) Think of the excuses to justify his problem going away… This is God’s providence But…

Issue 2 (6-7) “ …Joshua gave his word! “Joshua made peace with them and made a covenant with them, to let them live; and the leaders swore an oath to them.” Joshua 9.15

Issue 2 (6-7) No hesitation Takes all the warriors - valiant men Force march at night from Gilgal

Application How strong is your word? How important is your word to you? What do others think of your word? How does your word impact your testimony?

Issue 3 (8-11) The Word of God

“Do not fear them, for I have given them into your hands; not one of them will stand before you.” Joshua 10.8.

God’s Word… ‘is proven true again.’

Application Seems redundant to keep asking…why do we not trust in God’s Word after He proven over and over again He is trustworthy?

Issue 4 (12-15) Listen to the Voice of a Man

“Too often we are so intent on proving a point in the text that we miss the impact of the passage!.”

Joshua Speaks to the Lord Asks for the sun and moon to stand still To give time for complete victory In defiance of pagan deities Double victory for the Lord

The Sun Stands Stills Many Attempts to Explain Literal stop - NASA Other explanations… God worked a mighty miracle

Do We Miss the Impact of the Passage? “the Lord listened to the voice of a man, for the Lord fought for Israel!”

Application Which do you want: to be able to explain all of God’s miracles or to speak with God and He listens to your voice.

Application To be in the line of Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses and Joshua or have a famous speaking tour?

Application “Be still and know that I am God” Ps “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him” Ps 37.7.

Application “Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” Jeremiah 33.3
