Week 8 “Joshua: The Promise You Can Trust”
YouVersion Bible App Event (30 August 2020): https://bible.com/events/38435357
In today’s message, you will learn how one person’s unfaithfulness can sabotage a family, a community, and a nation. From victory to trouble, breaking God’s word breaks you.
Do you have faith to trust God even when your eyes seek personal gain? Learn how to cultivate a faith that leads to victory, not trouble.
This is the “THE PROMISE YOU CAN TRUST.”
Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.
Joshua 1:6 (ESV)

Faith that Leads to Trouble| Week 8: Joshua
But the people of Israel broke faith in regard to the devoted things, for Achan the son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things. And the anger of the Lord burned against the people of Israel.
Joshua 7:1 (ESV)
Takeaways
- Sin has a consistent pattern. “I saw it, I wanted it, I took it. I died.” | James 1:13-15, Colossians 3:5
- One person’s disobedience can bring trouble for a whole family or even a whole nation.
- God knows, even when you hide your sin.
- Repentance or confession doesn’t always free us from the earthly consequences/punishment of our sin.
- Waiting for God’s timing can reap great rewards.
And Achan answered Joshua, “Truly I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel, and this is what I did: 21 when I saw among the spoil a beautiful cloak from Shinar, and 200 shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing 50 shekels, then I coveted them and took them. And see, they are hidden in the earth inside my tent, with the silver underneath.”
Joshua 7:20-21 (ESV)
