Scripture: Joshua 10:12-14
SHOW NOTES:
We are excited to explore the prayers of individuals in the Bible in our new series, The Power of Prayer. Today, we will look closely at Joshua 10:12-14. A faithful leader offered a bold prayer. God heard his request, suspended the laws of nature, and granted the Israelites a miraculous victory!
At that time, Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord gave the Amorites over to the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, “Sun, stand still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.” And the sun stood still, and the moon stopped until the nation took vengeance on their enemies.
– Joshua 10:12-13
The prayer of Joshua serves as a powerful expression of faith, showcasing a wise leader and illustrating God’s sovereignty and divine intervention.
God answered Joshua’s prayer by causing the sun and moon to stand still. This prolonged the day and allowed the Israelites to achieve their victory.
Do you often “talk to the Lord?” Joshua had a close, personal relationship with the Lord and communicated with Him openly! We can learn valuable lessons from Joshua’s life.
