Jos 10:9 Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.
Jos 10:10 And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Bethhoron, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah.
This is a perfect picture of how the Lord works. He told Joshua what he wanted him to do, and that He would do it for him. All Joshua had to do was go, and let the Lord work. We see in verse 10 that it was the Lord who discomfited them before Israel. Israel just had to go and let the Lord win the battle.
Jos 11:20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
It seems odd for the Lord to harden someone’s heart, but that’s what happened here. And the reason He hardened their hearts was so that He could destroy them, and thus fulfill His command to Moses, and then be glorified.
Jos 12
Este capítulo es, más o menos, una lista de los reyes que hirió Josué. Es un testamento del poder de Dios, y todo que El puede hacer.
Pray for Spain. Pray that the Lord would raise up missionaries and native Spaniards to take the gospel to the millions of lost souls in Spain.
