Walls of Jericho

Published 11 months, 1 week ago

Description

After the fall of Jericho, Achan defied God's command by secretly concealing forbidden treasure. His private sin led to public loss and the death of others.

Contrast that with Rahab—her faith, risky and visible, led to life not just for herself but for her family. Both stories show that our choices can affect others and shape the legacies we leave behind.

Like Rahab, someone must stand up as a curse-breaker. Jesus did this for us, providing a heritage we cannot earn but can receive. Listen and consider the kind of legacy you’re passing on.

Scriptures Referenced

Joshua 2:8-11, 5:13-15; Romans 8:28; 2 Timothy 2:23; Hebrews 11:31; James 2:25
