Lessons from Joshua: Is God on My Side or am I on His?
Joshua thought the real question was, “Is God on our side?” But on the plains of Jericho, the Commander of Heaven’s Armies revealed the deeper truth: It’s not about God joining our plans; it’s about us aligning with His. Victory doesn’t come through strategy or strength, but through surrender, obedience and choosing His side over our own. Whatever “Jericho” you’re facing today, ask the only question that matters: “Lord, what do You want Your servant to do?”

Jordan River, Jericho and Mitzpe Yericho
The region encompassing the Jordan River, Jericho and the desert heights of Mitzpe Yericho stands as one of the most historically and biblically significant landscapes in the Land of Israel. Here, dramatic geographical contrasts mirror pivotal moments in Scripture.
Flowing through the heart of this region is the Jordan River, a narrow yet powerful boundary where Israel finally crossed into the Promised Land after 40 years of wandering the wilderness (Josh. 3). At God’s command, the waters stood still, allowing the nation to enter the Land of Promise on dry ground. Twelve stones were taken from the riverbed and erected as a memorial (Josh. 4), a physical reminder for future generations of God’s faithfulness at this critical threshold between past and future.
