Download de appJoshua - VS the FleshVoorbeeld
The battle at Ai demonstrates God's method for defeating the flesh. The flesh doesn't stay defeated. It keeps coming back until God ultimately destroys it. Israel had an enemy like that – the Amalekites. They represent the flesh in the Old Testament.
God rescued His people from slavery, baptized them into the Law, and gave them food and water in the wilderness. Then Amalek attacked. Joshua overcame while Moses prayed for him.
Joshua's first battle wasn't against Jericho - the world. It was against Amalek – the flesh.
Challenge:
- Memorize Romans 8:13
- Describe a time when someone else’s prayer helped you overcome.
- Find an accountability partner that will lift you up in prayer while you are on the battlefield.
Over dit leesplan
We have three enemies: the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. The world is like Jericho - a fortified wall around us. The flesh is entrenched inside of us. As we see victory over the foe outside, we begin to understand the enemy within. This in-depth stand-alone plan is also part 6 of a 10 part series.
