In this story we will see that God is faithful to His Word and He is active today. We will see that we are invited to trust Him, to walk in obedience and to celebrate and declare the amazing things that He is doing.

So often we have a narrow view of the “sort of people” that God would invite into his plans, yet an honest reader would have to admit that the scriptures are peppered with surprises. Rahab’s narrative is one such surprise. Our boxes are broken as we encounter a lying, fearful, Canaanite prostitute stepping out in courageous faith and ultimately being included in the family of God.
