In this episode of The Well podcast, Pastor Phil and host Les Norman talk about God’s forgiveness and Rahab’s faith in Joshua 2.

Rahab was a pagan Canaanite prostitute living in Jericho. God had promised that city to the Israelites, but because they were fearful and lacked faith, they wandered in the wilderness outside Jericho for 40 years. While the Israelites lived in fear of the Canaanites, the Canaanites lived in fear of the Hebrew God.

Fear always distorts reality and keeps us from seeing what God has promised us and has in store for us. Rahab had heard about the Hebrew God and knew about Him drying up the Red Sea, destroying the Egyptian army, and leading the Israelites out of captivity. She believed in this God, and her faith eventually saved her and her family from being destroyed by the Israelite army.

Rahab knew that her Canaanite gods were false gods. She believed in God and in His power before she met the two Hebrew spies she hid in her house. God used Rahab to demonstrate that your works and life change are the reflection of your salvation in Christ. Rahab’s faith in God was authenticated by her willingness to jeopardize her own life to save the spies. Hiding the spies didn’t save Rahab, but it revealed that she was saved by Jesus.

God wants us to know that where sin abounded, grace abounded much more. There’s no sin so great that God’s forgiveness can’t cover it. If God can save a pagan prostitute, He can save anyone from their sin.

Learn how Rahab’s faith and God’s forgiveness give us hope that God’s grace can save and redeem anyone!
