[Original Audio Bible Study Recording - Mandarin - Theme: Our God Has Delivered the Enemy into Our Hands - Bible Study Sharing on July 17, 2019]

Introduction

Joshua Chapter 6 is a remarkable chapter because it marks their first battle after crossing the Jordan River. This battle was crucial because the walls of Jericho were exceedingly high and fortified. If you were to attack the city, what methods would you employ? What did Joshua and the Israelites use to attack? The priests walked around the city.

We begin to consider one thing: what is the reason for our victory? Our victory is because of God! Remember, our victory is because of God! The previous chapter speaks of the Lord as the commander of the army of Israel! In this chapter, we can see that the Lord God led the Israelites to battle. Who caused the people of Israel to be victorious? It was God who made the people of Israel victorious.

God Has Delivered the Enemy into Our Hands

Our God has delivered the enemy into our hands. Such a title is very appropriate:

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour. (Joshua 6:1-2)

Brothers and sisters must know that God has already delivered all the enemies to us, especially in the matter of spiritual warfare, fighting against the devil and the enemy. The most important thing is that God has delivered the devil and the enemy to us. One day, I was ministering to a sister, and as she spoke, she was on the verge of collapse, watching her son being controlled by depression. I communicated with her son a lot, but it was particularly difficult to communicate; it was always the demon speaking.

Her son locked himself in his room, and there was no response no matter how much they called. Then we prayed, because behind it all were the devil and the enemy. After returning, she sent me good news, saying: My son finally opened the door and came out. Then her son began to listen to the sharing, and then I gave her son an active consciousness of victory. Because her son was already thirty years old and had not achieved anything. In fact, when a person reaches thirty and has not achieved anything, it is very uncomfortable and difficult.

Brothers and sisters, do not think that we can achieve nothing after believing in God. No matter who it is, it is very uncomfortable to achieve nothing. Why is this so? Because the mind is full of the lies of evil spirits. People live in the lies of evil spirits, doing what they should not do, and not doing what they should do, making things very bad. Because of interpersonal problems, people become very entangled and often have to take anti-depressants to maintain.

That night, we prayed until two o'clock. That sister began to come out of the breakdown, and then her child also began to walk out of the room and actively communicate with her. Then this child had the consciousness of fighting, no longer in a decadent state. Being stubborn, strong, and decadent is really terrible. I just want to let this sister know that no matter what the environment, God is still in control, and God has already delivered the enemy into our hands. This is not because of what we have done or have not done.

Therefore, brothers and sisters, no matter how high and firm the city walls are, no matter how capable the warriors in the city are, and no matter how challenging the environment is, we must know that God has already delivered the enemy into our hands. We must begin to understand one thing, that on our way into God's promised land, God's promises, no matter how many, are all Amen!

We claim many promises, but on the way to claiming God's promises, it is full of challenges. Every challenge is an impact on our faith. When we focus on various problems, the walls of Jericho are incomparably high and very strong, and there are many mighty warriors inside. How can we understand that God will actually allow us to be victorious! Therefore, when we look at the environment, we must shift our gaze from the environment and turn to focus on God's word.

Focus on God's word, and you will surely see God's miraculous deeds! This child locked himself in the room, what can you do to get him out? It's really hard! You may have many methods, but there is only one method, that is, God has already delivered the enemy into the victorious church!

In every healing and deliverance process, I see some brothers and sisters on the verge of collapse. The problem has not been solved and has become more serious. But I know that God has already given us victory! Because it is difficult to be delivered if the devil does not manifest. When the devil manifests, the problem is quite sharp, and the situation is very bad, but don't worry, know that God has already delivered the enemy into our hands.

Our victory only stems from one thing, that is, God has already delivered the enemy into our hands. Why does God deliver the enemy into our hands? Because we are to enter into God's plan. God wants to be our commander. We follow God to accomplish God's plan, which is called Mingding Destiny!

Without Mingding Destiny, everyone plays their own game, everyone has their own set of plans, and then they are still praying about their own little things. Without Mingding Destiny, where does the blessing come from? It is God who makes us victorious. God is our commander. This is the most primitive foundation. It is not that Joshua wants to achieve something for himself, but that Joshua wants to implement God's plan for the Israelites. It is God who wants to accomplish what he once promised Abraham in the Israelites!

We must know that such victory is because God has delivered the enemy and the mighty warriors to us! Why does God want to deliver them to us? Because we are not fulfilling our own plans! Brothers and sisters, if you have your own dreams, especially a set of worldly dreams, and you are still praying desperately, then you should give up! Because your set of things does not conform to God's will in itself.

Few people preach this kind of sharp message, but that's what the Bible says, so we read it this way. Today we must know that God wants to accomplish His promises in us, let us enter into the promised land, and let us be able to claim His promises. The key is that we must enter into God's will.

Rigid and Mechanical Faith Cannot Obtain Blessings

And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days. And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets. And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him. And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the Lord. And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the Lord.

And it was so, that when Joshua had spoken unto the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the Lord, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them. And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets. And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout. So the ark of the Lord compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the Lord went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the Lord, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets. And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times. And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city. And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the Lord: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in her house; because she hid the messengers that we sent. And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it. But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the Lord: they shall come into the treasury of the Lord. So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword. (Joshua 6:3-21)

There is a very challenging matter here. Did the act of circling the city play a role? Or did God delivering the enemy into our hands play a role? In past ministries, some brothers and sisters among us saw what I did, and then they inherited and imitated it. However, their inheritance and imitation is a mechanical inheritance and imitation! This is not effective.

Do Not Copy Methods, Copy Mingding Destiny

God commanded Joshua and the Israelites to circle the city once a day for seven days. How to fight the battles behind? Why do this? People like to find a formula or a method. In fact, the method is not the most critical. In healing and deliverance, we must constantly learn to be flexible, and our spirit must obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Do not rely on your own methods.

In the New Testament Bible, the same is true. Brothers and sisters should not rely on a method. Seven priests blew trumpets, were they ram's horns or bull's horns? How to blow? I often see some gatherings where they prepare many horns and many colorful flags waving there. But those who need healing and deliverance cannot receive healing and deliverance, and I am very puzzled and surprised. What are they doing with the waving flags and blowing horns?

I thought to myself, what can this do? People like to learn a method! Some brothers and sisters here once followed some pastors who would pray on the stage with a microphone and blow a breath, and pieces of the audience would fall down. I have a say in this. I believed in the Lord and grew up in this situation. Everyone was very happy after falling down, but those people were still the same after getting up.

I was once invited to be a speaker at a conference. I was an unknown person at the time. If there was time, I would let you share, and if there was no time, it didn't matter. As a result, they were all waving flags and blowing horns, and when they prayed on the stage, everyone below fell down. When it was my turn to share, I liked to solve problems. I had seen a lot of this kind of prayer. They called this the Charismatic movement! To be honest, I have seen a lot of falling down and then standing up, but it is useless.

After I went on stage, I said: Does anyone have cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis, or joint pain? I thought there would be only 2-3 people, but all those who had just fallen down stood up again, and more than 80% of the people raised their hands. I took two colleagues over and ministered to them one by one! I said: Those in the back, grab the shoulders of those in the front, and then connect together and pray with me! After one prayer, more than half of the people's lumbar spine and cervical spine were healed. I felt that people took falling down too seriously? Because he saw others doing this, so he also did this.

What God did in Jericho is difficult to summarize into a formula. Carrying the ark around the city, sometimes the ark walks in front, sometimes the ark is placed behind, so do you say that putting it in front is important, or putting it behind is important? In fact, being in front and behind are not key. Do not play formulas in the matter of believing in the Lord, it is very deadly if you play formulas.

Many people believe in the Lord, and as they believe, they fall into formulas. For example, speaking in tongues, speaking in tongues is very good, but if speaking in tongues forms a formula, it is troublesome. Speaking in tongues is just a level in the Bible. Some people like to find a method, and then they exaggerate and exaggerate the method excessively!

When we study the Bible carefully, you will find that when the Israelites crossed the Red Sea, Moses raised his staff to the sea. According to the formula, should Joshua raise his staff to the Jordan River at this time? But it is not like this, God said: You carry the ark and stand in the Jordan River. If you say that there was no ark in the era of Moses, you can only raise a staff to the sea. We can explain it this way, but the problem comes, when Jesus came into the world, sometimes he used saliva and mud to put on his tongue; sometimes he used saliva and mud to put on his eyes; sometimes he went to which river to wash several times, they were not copying a method.

I summarize a rule, never copy methods, copy Mingding Destiny. If we enter into God's plan, if we enter into God's will, then God's Spirit will surely guide us in front. I am a very flexible person. I don't like to grasp the surface when I do things. Some people like to buy some bull horns and ointment in Israel, and expect that after doing these things, there will be a peculiar effect.

That is to say, we cannot build our faith on methods. If we build our faith on blowing ram's horns or blowing bull's horns, or the priest walks in front of the ark or behind, the ark is in front of the Israelites or behind... If we build our faith on this, it will be troublesome!

We are to build our faith on God's promises, and build our faith on God being our commander, and God will surely lead us to fight! In the early years when I first believed in the Lord, I saw things on the stage every day when praying, and a lot of people falling down. One day I was also very curious, is this useful? I also went up to pray, and then someone pushed my forehead, I staggered and stood up again. It doesn't count if I was pushed down, and I didn't cooperate very much. I was wondering what that was? As a result, I saw that I was the only one standing on the stage. As a result, the person who prayed for me comforted me a lot and told me not to worry and be entangled, and to come again next time.

I thought to myself that I would never come again next time. From that incident, I had a negative view of falling down, because some brothers and sisters I knew well were still the same after coming down. I want to release everyone from this superficial phenomenon, and don't pursue those superficial methods, that is not the truth. Many people among us have hiccups or something, that is not the truth of the Bible. If I preach that hiccups are the truth, then I will soon become a heretic.

Brothers and sisters, can you please stop building our faith on methods! But build our faith on God! God has already delivered the enemy into our hands, this is where our faith lies. How flexible am I? I often do some fresh things, and sometimes I really rely on the revelation of the Holy Spirit.

Once I was praying for a sister, this sister was screaming with leg pain, and I said this is easy to solve. As a result, an hour passed and there was no progress, two hours passed and there was no progress. I said: God, what is this? Prayer is not working! At this time, the Holy Spirit gave me a revelation, use your finger to poke her Zusanli point. Fortunately, I learned Chinese medicine since I was a child, and then I touched the Zusanli point, I command in the name of Jesus Christ, that the spirit of death, the spirit of pain go down! As a result, it was better in ten seconds, it was really amazing!

Later, I slowly learned that when God created people, there were still many tricks. When creating people, people have acupuncture points. Acupuncture points are the key points for the circulation of Qi and blood in the body. I gradually learned that many evil spirits live in acupuncture points, but this cannot replace our faith in God. Therefore, many of our colleagues like to find a method, and then keep using that method, that is a deadly thing. This is not a matter of method, the key is a faith in God.

Rejecting the Spirit of Rigidity

Some brothers and sisters are extremely troubled. For example, if a sister's child is suffering, how can the mother not be distressed seeing her son in pain? But I said to this sister, Sister, God has already handed the enemy into our hands. Just go and act! The mother said, Will my child commit suicide? I said, Don't worry, the life and death of people are in God's hands! These words were truly powerful. As a result, our sister began to muster faith to confront the devil, and it was indeed a battle. Praise the Lord! After a day of fighting, the devil was left barely alive.

The soldiers of Israel circled Jericho seven times, once each day, and seven times on the seventh day. This was because God personally instructed Joshua to do so, not to copy it as a formula and apply it to other matters. Including where to press, where to pinch, what to do... these are not the most important things. The most important thing is how the Holy Spirit reveals. The Holy Spirit is a Spirit of revelation. Our Christian faith is a faith of revelation. God is a God who reveals to us. We can have some basic speculation and understanding of the spiritual realm regarding our judgment of the spiritual environment. But the key is not these things. The key is when the Holy Spirit guides you and how you follow the Holy Spirit. So, by all means, do not become rigid. Rigidity makes it impossible to win battles.

The Bible gives us a very important principle: walk according to the Holy Spirit, follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. How can we follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit? I tell you, God will surely reveal to you. Why do some people not receive revelation? Because you don't need to serve, what will the Holy Spirit reveal to you? If Joshua were a beggar instead of leading the Israelite army to inherit the land, God would not reveal anything to him.

When our brothers and sisters enter into their Destiny, when we are to fulfill God's will and purpose in this generation, how can God not guide us? How could God not reveal to us? We are merely instruments in His hands. Whether we do this or do that is not important. The most important thing is still God.

For a while, I liked to talk about stress management, but managing stress doesn't work because some stress is related to the spiritual realm. The stress management I talked about was just a method. If the foundation is destroyed, what use are these methods? If we obey the guidance of the Holy Spirit and then solve the problem of stress, you will find it works very well. Because we do not trust in methods, but trust in our God! So by all means, do not become rigid. Rigidity is a very evil thing.

Rejecting the Spirit of Gossip

The Israelites were very interesting. Joshua commanded them that no one should make a sound, no one should shout, and not a word should come out of their mouths. They did not open their mouths to speak. Imagine if the Israelites were chatting while walking, what would happen? The people Joshua led were very obedient. Everyone was silent. This is the unity of the army, a very good state to be in! Why didn't Joshua let the people speak? Because as soon as the people spoke, they would say nonsense, release corruption and confusion, and there would be no way to win the battle.

Brothers and sisters must know that there is a very powerful spirit called gossip. The spirit of gossip is very powerful. I have fought one spiritual battle after another with the spirit of gossip. I have discovered that there is a peculiar thing in people that likes to gossip. Gossip is just talk that isn't very useful. I have suffered greatly from gossip. When I hold Sunday gatherings, everyone comes, and I prepare a lot of things. I put in all my effort. But after I finish speaking, people form groups of three or two, and they do whatever they want to do. As for the sermon I preached, they forget it long ago. In those days, the church was too desolate and too hard.

As a result, they say to each other, Can what he said work? I become the subject of their gossip. I desperately minister for half a day, and a few words of gossip from them ruins everything. It's fatal. I speak with painstaking effort for half a day, and someone's gossip corrupts the person. It's really strange, and even today I'm still wondering, why are people like this? I work hard to serve him. Originally, he couldn't find a job. I trained him, led him to pray for deliverance, and finally managed to fix him. But whoever opposes me, he stands on their side. There is no grace for him on the side he stands on.

So gossip is really powerful. Brothers and sisters, you need to know that speaking gossip will corrupt you, and it will also corrupt the other person, because speaking gossip is a very powerful evil spirit. One person among us has been a believer for many years and is already a relatively senior member. As a result, she patted the newcomer on the shoulder and said, Let's go eat something. The newcomer asked the senior member, What do you think of the pastor's sermon today? The senior member said, Don't listen to him, that's not necessarily true. These few words wiped out everything I had done.

Later, I desperately confronted the evil spirit of gossip. So brothers and sisters, if you have a bad habit of gossiping, you must be especially careful. You must clearly know that it is an evil spirit. So, to fight spiritual warfare, you must deal with the evil spirit of gossip. Joshua's method was to tell the people of Israel not to make a sound, not to shout, and not to let any words come out of your mouths until you shout. Only then can you shout. This is unity.

Victory in Battle Lies with God

Brothers and sisters must have a clear understanding of spiritual things. As a result, when the Israelites shouted on the seventh day, all the walls collapsed. We need to know that God leads us in battle. Such strong and tall walls required no preparation. Just prepare seven priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant and blowing horns, circling the walls. This is really wonderful. God wants to use this to make us understand that we can win not because of anything else, but because God fights for us. God has already handed the enemy over to us.

I preached a sermon called All Were Healed. God has already handed the enemy into our hands. How can we not be victorious? It is not difficult to receive healing and deliverance among us. Some brothers and sisters have struggled for a long time without getting better, but they quickly receive deliverance when they come among us. If you come among us and are still in the midst of struggling, it doesn't matter. You need to know for sure that there are still some things we need to deal with! Our God is always faithful.

My mother said that she saw a ghost again, with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, and a hooked nose. After it came, it grabbed her hand. The pastor among us grabbed her other hand, pulling each other. As a result, these ghosts couldn't do anything to my mother because this old sister has Destiny. Brothers and sisters need to know that it is not that my mother is great, but because my mother has Destiny. My mother is in God's plan! God has already handed the enemy into our hands. This is very crucial.

All brothers and sisters must know for sure that God's will is for you to be healed. If you are not yet healed, we don't need anything else. We just need one thing, and that is to begin to desire to fight for victory and obtain the promised land! The most important thing, I must tell you, is that you may be healed, but that does not mean you have Destiny! But if you are not yet healed, then begin to desire to obtain Destiny, begin to desire to know why you live! You need to know that the reason so many people among us have been healed is because we are a group of people with Destiny!

Removing the Devoted Things

Some people feel, how could God still curse people? In fact, as long as we violate God's word, we will definitely be cursed. Especially long-time Christians must begin to know one thing, we must return to blessing. Our diseases are a typical curse. All brothers and sisters begin to understand this matter. Although God has promised to hand the enemy into our hands, we cannot have any devoted things! In the next chapter, you will see that the Israelites took things that belonged to God, and they became devoted things. As a result, they were cursed.

That was the first battle of the Israelites. All the spoils of war belonged to God. The firstborn belongs to God. That is, when your sheep give birth to lambs, the firstborn belongs to God. Then the second, third, and fourth are yours. So we see how God commanded Joshua, that all the gold, silver, and bronze and iron vessels in the city should be consecrated to the Lord and put into the treasury of the Lord. The Israelites had no share in it and could not take it, because this was the first battle. The subsequent ones would belong to the Israelites.

We need to start thinking about whether we have taken things that belong to God. I often minister to some people, and as soon as I minister, God's revelation comes upon them, that they are thieves or something. I ask, Are you a tithe-payer? He says, I am a tithe-payer. I say, Tell the truth honestly. He says, I donate all the tithes to the poor.

I think no matter whether this is an excuse or something else, in short, they have not given what belongs to God back to God. For a while, a sister came among us. She was from Taiwan. Bad luck followed her. The upstairs of her house was renovated, and the toilet was changed to above the master bedroom of her house. Lying in bed, all she heard was the sound of flushing toilets. She went to court to sue them, but she lost. She just kept having strange things happen.

This sister told us about her tragic experiences. I really felt sorry for her, and then I led her to pray. As soon as I prayed, the Spirit of God revealed that she was a thief. I said, Sister, are you a tithe-payer? She said she hadn't tithed for twenty years. A Christian who has been a Christian for twenty years and doesn't tithe, she still hasn't figured out this account! I said, Sister, you have been cursed because of this. You must be a tithing Christian! As a result, this sister got angry with me! But what's the use of getting angry with me? That doesn't solve your problem. Later, she came to me several times, but I really couldn't minister to her.

Brothers and sisters, you need to know one thing, people's problems are all because they have been cursed by God! Someone said, Isn't our Jesus love? That's right, our Jesus is love, but Jesus wants to release us from the curse. The Bible says that God curses people! So among us, are there any who withhold God's offerings? If so, I encourage you to think carefully. This account is easy to calculate. Is 10% a lot? 10% is not a lot. If we withhold it, our losses will be great. Our brothers and sisters among us must not take things that belong to God. Taking things that belong to God is being cursed.

The first batch of first fruits belongs to God, and the firstborn also belongs to God. The spoils of the first battle also belong to God. God will let us share in the subsequent ones. So here, the gold, silver, and bronze and iron vessels must be consecrated to the Lord. If it is consecrated to the Lord, if you take what belongs to God into your own hands, it becomes a devoted thing.

We will see in the Bible that God had Joshua capture the city and kill all the men, women, old, and young, cattle, sheep, and donkeys in the city with the sword. Why did our God do this? Brothers and sisters, do not discern good and evil about God. When many people read the Old Testament, they say, The God of the Old Testament is not the God of the New Testament! In fact, the God of the Old Testament and the God of the New Testament are one God. Moreover, brothers and sisters must know that in this destroyed city, the prostitute Rahab and all her household were saved, but the others in Jericho were people who were enemies of God. If you are an enemy of God, you will really die.

There is no good result to being an enemy of God. The question is, did the people in Jericho have the right to choose? They had the right to choose because they knew that the Israelites had crossed the Red Sea, they knew that the Israelites were in the wilderness, and they knew the name of the Lord God, but they did not worship Him as God, and they wanted to resist God's people. As a result, they were cursed. This curse was because they resisted God.

Brothers and sisters, do not think that the New Testament does not talk about curses. The New Testament also talks about curses:

To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism. (Romans 2:7-11)

So many people are hardening their unrepentant hearts, accumulating God's wrath for themselves, so that God is angry. Curses are very powerful, do not be an enemy of God, there is no good result to being an enemy of God. May God remember you and your family because of you, just as God remembered the prostitute Rahab. God has abundant grace and mercy! As long as you return.

If you do not return, if you still act with a hardened heart, then sorry, our God has never changed. Whether it is the New Testament or the Old Testament, our God is the same from yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and forever, never changing.

So do not regard God as some Santa Claus. Our God rules this world with an iron rod! So do not take God's offerings and become a thief and be cursed. If you directly resist God and God's people, you will become God's enemy. The people in Jericho resisted God, and as a result, the people in Jericho were cursed by God. Joshua declared a curse there:

At that time Joshua pronounced this solemn oath: “Cursed before the Lord is the one who undertakes to rebuild this city, Jericho: “At the cost of his firstborn son he will lay its foundations; at the cost of his youngest he will set up its gates.” (Joshua 6:26)

As a result, this happened in the years of Ahab in the Old Testament. Hiel the Bethelite rebuilt Jericho. As a result, when he laid the foundations, he lost his eldest son, and when he put the gates on, his youngest son also died. Only then did they remember what Joshua had said. So brothers and sisters, do not think that the evil spirits rule that place. No matter where it is, God has the final say. Why are many places cursed by God? Because that place worships idols and evil spirits, and God curses that place.

So brothers and sisters, when you travel, do not go to those cursed places, such as prisons, places where people are killed, execution grounds, places where serious earthquake disasters have occurred, or museums of massacre memorials. These places are closely related to curses. We need to begin to understand that any disaster is a manifestation of God's anger! Brothers and sisters must begin to understand these things and have a deep understanding of spiritual things.

Conclusion

As a result, Rahab's family was saved in this place. No matter what our identity is, no matter what our moral standards are in the world, if we seek God, God will surely save us! Our God is a God who transcends morality. Our God looks at people's faith! Some people may say, what if there were good people among those who were killed in Jericho? But God does not look at people according to whether they are good or bad. God looks at whether people seek Him. If we are people who trust in God, we will surely be saved! So we need to know for sure that our God has handed the enemy into our hands. We will trust in God alone! We will see God give us victory!

But the problem is, if this is the first war, the spoils of war after God gives us victory belong to God. If not, we give God the tithes that should be paid. We need to begin to know that blessings and curses come from God. God brings disasters and blessings. People live by every word that comes from God's mouth. We do as God says, and we live according to God's word, and then we will surely live in God's plan and God's blessing. God will surely hand the enemy into our hands. This enemy is the devil! We will surely release those who are controlled by the devil from oppression and complete God's Destiny on us!

May God bless everyone! Amen!
