Sermons on Conquest Of Canaan:

Passion: Living Under God's Direction Series

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Jul 10, 2011

As Children and people of the covnenant we are marked in the Old testament by circumcision in the New by God's Spirit. It will be our passion to follow God's command if we are indeed children of the covenant.

Intro: Warren Wiersbe said something profound. “God’s people must be prepared before they can be trusted with victory.” The conquest of the Promised Land was God’s victory not Joshua’s or Israel’s. It was not the expertise of the Jewish army or emotions of ...read more

On The Edge Of Greatness

Contributed by John Hamby on Oct 16, 2003

Three characteristics of moving on to greatness taken from the Children of Israel’s refusal to cross over into the Promised Land.

On the Edge of Greatness Numbers 13:17-20 (Basic Sermon idea from a sermon by Pastor Eric Goodman) I believe that it is God’s desire for every church to enter into greatness. You may be thinking, “Now, hold on Bro John, that can’t be right! Are you saying ...read more

Godly Generation Dies Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 3, 2018

The older generation failed to teach the younger generation God’s truth as Moses had commanded them (Deut. 6:1–9 ). It is bad enough that they forgot Joshua, their second greatest leader, but how could they forget the Lord?

Chapter 9 Godly Generation Dies [Judges 2.6-10] Scripture 6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land. 7 And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, ...read more

Possessing With Confidence Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

Caleb remembered God’s promise, put his hope in it, and allowed it to become the fuel that fanned the flame of faith. Hope is the very thing that strengthens our faith, and provides the confidence to possess the Promised Land.

Joshua divided Canaan among the tribes of Israel (Joshua 11:23) just as God had commanded him (Joshua 1:3, 6); and then some time later, the Lord approached him again, and in Joshua chapter 13, verses 1 and 7, the Bible shares the account of what He instructed Joshua to do. We read, “Now Joshua ...read more

Rahab And The Spies Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jan 17, 2016

There was a time when we were like Rahab. We were outside of the family of God, living in the blindness and corruption of sin, till God instilled faith in us. Like Rahab, we are invited just as we are. God will take us and transform us.

This is a story of grace... The last time spies were sent to do a covert reconnaissance of the Promised Land, there were twelve, sent by Moses, and only two of them, Caleb and Joshua, had faith to believe God would grant Israel victory. Perhaps symbolically, Joshua sent two men to glean ...read more

A lot of Christians today are not enjoying the life that God intended. Even though, they are saved, it seems their lives are lost, no joy, no victory, no peace. They are not on the mountain top.

Rahab Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 18, 2011

The story of Rahab teaches us something about the faithfulness and grace of God. Rahab stays in the city, trusting that God will keep his promise and she’s kept safe.

Joshua 2 - Rahab Joshua has received the call of God. If he’s to be a good leader he needs to show courage. But he also needs to show wisdom. They’re still on the east side of the Jordan, not yet in the Promised land and he’s working out what to do first. So before embarking on a ...read more
