Joshua 2:1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot’s house, named Rahab, and lodged there.

Ver. 1. And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim.] Where the people then encamped, [Numbers 33:49] and where the Midianites sometime, by the counsel of Balaam, Satan’s spell man, outwitted the Israelites by setting fair women before them, who soon drew them into those two sister sins, idolatry and adultery. [Numbers 25:1-2; Numbers 25:18]

Two men.] Not twelve, as Numbers 13:2-3, for those were too many by ten; and did much harm among the people.

But when you pray. This does not prohibit public prayers, but it emphasizes the fact that it is the prayer itself which is important. Your own room is a good place to pray, because there you will not be trying to impress anyone. Jesus went off by himself to pray many times, and at other times, he prayed in public. "Your room" can be any quiet place. Once Peter's "room" was on the roof of a house; the Savior's on a mountain alone. Will reward you. See Matthew 6:4.

Psalms 1
God made man for happiness.
Every man feels a desire to be happy.
All human beings abhor misery.
Happiness is the grand object of pursuit among all men.
But so perverted is the human heart, that it seeks happiness where it cannot be found; and in things which are naturally and morally unfit to communicate it.
The true way of obtaining it is here laid down.

2 Chronicles 18:22
Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a deceiving spirit in the mouth of these your prophets, for the LORD has proclaimed disaster against you

Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil against thee.
To those who would not believe the truth, God sent a strong delusion, that they would believe lies,
(2 Thessalonians 2:10)

Exodus 6
2.And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the Lord:

Psalm 27
[A Psalm] of David.

1 The Lord is my Light and my Salvation whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalm 26 (NKJV)
1 Establish justice for me, Lord,
because I have walked with integrity.
I’ve trusted the Lord without wavering.
