Joshua 2:6
Joshua 2:6
But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof.
Joshua 2:6 recounts the story of Rahab, a prostitute who lived in the city of Jericho. When the Israelite spies entered the city, Rahab welcomed them into her home and hid them from the king's soldiers, knowing that their God was powerful and that their conquest of the land was imminent. Rahab's faith and courage are a testament to the power of God to transform lives. She risked her own safety to protect the spies and ultimately played a key role in the Israelites' victory over Jericho. Her story shows that God can use anyone, regardless of their past or circumstances, to fulfill His plans and bring about His purposes. As we reflect on Rahab's example, may we be inspired to trust in God's power and faithfulness? May we be willing to step out in faith and obedience, even in difficult and uncertain situations. May we remember that God's love and grace are available to all who turn to Him, no matter who they are or where they come from.
James 2:26
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
1 Peter 1:8
Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
Acts 19:18
And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
1 Peter 2:7
