9.8.19-The Promise of Victory
Use the following thoughts and questions to have a spiritual conversation as a family. Don’t emphasize having the right
answer, but focus on spending time discussing the Word as a family.
• What other people group can we pray for, asking God to burden our hearts for this people and to be part of reaching them with the gospel?
• What are some ways that God has showed us unexpected kindness, mercy, and grace that exceeded our expectations?
• When have we trusted in God and later saw Him come through in a powerful way? How did we feel?
Scripture
Joshua 2:8-13; 6:15-17,20-25Session Summary
As the Israelites prepared to begin their conquest of the promised land, first up was the fortified city of Jericho. In this session, we will see that word of God’s works and power had gone before the Israelites and the people of Jericho were terrified. And yet, that did not prevent them from retreating behind their city walls, hoping they could hold out against the advancing Israelites. Everyone that was, except for a woman named Rahab. We will see that Rahab alone among the people of Jericho believed that God would be victorious and appealed to Him and His people for an act of kindness: to spare her and her family from the coming destruction.Conversation Questions
