When faced with honoring a costly covenant with the Gibeonites, Joshua chose faithfulness over convenience, marching all night to defend those who had deceived him. This commitment opened the door for God's miraculous intervention, including making the sun stand still during battle. Joshua's bold, public prayer demonstrated his unwavering faith in God's promises. The story teaches us that God honors covenant faithfulness, responds to believing prayer, and secures complete victory for His people. When we keep our commitments, pray boldly, and trust God to finish what He started, we position ourselves to experience God's supernatural intervention in our battles.
