Joshua and the Israelites have just scored their great military victory of all time. And it has sent shock waves reverberating throughout the Promised Land. But immediately on the heels of this great victory they suffer a humiliating defeat and at the hands of a much smaller adversary. One step forward - two steps back. Do you ever feel that way? Sometimes it is through circumstance completely out of our control, but other times it is our fault. Sin and disobedience will stuff us - and God’s blessing - dead in our tracks. This week, let’s take time to examine our hearts and make sure that we are rightly and fully aligned with God so we can experience His victories in our life uninterrupted.
