A Robe, Silver and Gold

Mar 24, 2015 / Bible Study / 2 COMMENTS

Today’s Scripture
“A man named Achan had stolen some of these dedicated things, so the Lord was very angry with the Israelites” (Joshua 7:1).

 

 
Achan probably thought when he took some of the loot that it would not affect anyone or even be missed. Yet, his sin caused something bad to happen to the entire community – they lost the battle!

 
Many times we experience spiritual victories; however, yesterday’s victory does not automatically guarantee today will not bring defeat. We must constantly – day after day – rely on God for strength.

    When Joshua cried out to God after their defeat, it reminded me of the cry of the Israelites when they were in the desert.

    And I had forgotten about Zimri being the one caught with Cosbi! Family sin is often a legacy that’s passed on from one generation to another.
