Today we consider the story of Rahab, who lived within the thick walls of earthly power and security in Jericho. Even so, she fixed her eyes on a coming kingdom, yet unseen, that was truer than the one she was a part of. In faith, she defects from her earthly citizenship and aligns herself with the Kingdom of God. Because Jesus came preaching the Good News that the "Kingdom of God is at hand," believers must be willing to take on that same realignment. This is not easy to do! It is risky and costly... and yet critical... as the writer of Hebrews reminds us, "... for here we have no lasting city, but fix our eyes on the one that is to come.
