Rahab and the Spies (our bible text Joshua 2:1-24)
1. The problem will always come.
Joshua 2:2-3 when the king found out about them. How can they come out of it?
But God will always make a way. Isaiah 43:16-19, (also read - 1 Corinthians 10:13 ,Psalm 145:14)
2.
GOD WILL ALWAYS MAKE A WAY.
God made a way for the two spies: Joshua 2:4-6
GOD has already put helpers everywhere you go. When the devil puts you in trouble just call on him. Psalm 50:15, Psalm 46:1-3
Philippians 4:6, 7 Hebrews 13:5
3. Your helper to victory can be anybody. Joshua 2:1; 2:8-12
If you know who you are in Christ, you should be the one to influence people not the other way around because if the spies ran away from her because she was a prostitute, they could have died and she would never have had the opportunity to become a child of God. 1 Peter 2:9, 1 Corinthians 9:20
4 Nothing can separate you from God’s love
The spies got their victory; Joshua 2:17-23.romans 8:31-39
5. Do not be afraid
God wants to use our problems for good, to make us better and stronger for our personal development and in turn for us to be able to help others in their lives. So the unhappy, confused and disillusioned Christian will react irrationally with their problems rather than taking the time through spiritual discipline to see the advantage they bring them. So what can we do to refocus ourselves onto the right path?
Romans 8:28
Life application: 4
Know why you are doing what you are doing, that is the only way to get your victory. Philippians 3:14,
Romans 8:38, 39, Isaiah 41:10

The Lord always speaks to us when things are not working, but do we listen? : Joshua 6:1-5
2.Doing God’s will:
Joshua did everything God asked him to do: Joshua 6:6-19
For us to have songs of victory, we need to do everything God asks us to do in life. Deuteronomy 28:1,
Exodus 19:5
3. We all are Overcomers
Joshua got victory: Joshua 6: 20-27
Victory is not a matter of you fixing or changing the circumstances. No. Victory is IN YOU. It is YOU coming to the place in your relationship with God where you believe – completely irrespective of your circumstances. That is the victory of faith.
Victory means freedom. It means that I am free to be who God intended me to be, because I have seen what He is to me. Victory is the result of pushing through by faith, all that would keep me from walking in the Truth: 1 john5:4
4: faith
The world," in this passage, means all that is of the world IN US, and all that is of the world that comes against us. FAITH is that victory. Faith is not based on whether we can overcome. Faith is based on the faith that Jesus has already overcome every enemy that will come against us. Our faith stands in the fact that despite contradiction, the victory is assured because of Jesus Christ.
If I will believe, I will eventually see. Not sometimes, but every time. I will not only see the salvation of the Lord working out in ME, and my circumstances, but I will come to the place where nothing will be able to greatly move me from my faith. That is victory.
Psalm 125:1) Psalm 62:1-2)
