The Powerful God

Read Joshua 6:1-20

God told the Israelites to walk around the walls of the city every day for 7 days. The people of God obeyed. On the seventh day, God told the people to walk around the city 7 times and then blow their horns. Then God would show them how powerful He is.

The powerful walls of Jericho fell down to the ground! Nothing could stand in
the Israelites’ way. God is powerful. We can trust God because he is strong enough to see us through anything.
