This sermon is part 6 of 16 in the Joshua | The Promise You Can Trust

Week 6 “Joshua: The Promise You Can Trust”

YouVersion Bible App Event (16 August 2020): https://www.bible.com/events/29184458

The west side of the Jordan River became Holy Ground for Joshua and the peopel of Israel.

In today’s message, you will learn about the two religious rituals that God had Joshua perform when the people of Israel entered the Holy Land.

These two religious rituals have spiritual significance for us today.

You will learn how to be circumcised of the heart, and how to celebrate the holy communion.

You can be baptized into the promise of God’s rest by saying Yes to Jesus and following him in water baptism.

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)

YouVersion Bible App Event (9 August 2020): https://bible.com/events/29184445

Gilgal means “circle of set up stones.”
Stones were set at Gilgal as a memorial of God’s Faithfulness.

In today’s message, you will learn about the memorials established by Joshua to teach Isreal’s children and the nations about the mighty hand of God.

Jesus also established a memorial at the “Last Supper.” He said, “do this in remembrance of me.”

He also told his disciples to baptize others in water as a sign of God’s salvation

You can be baptized into the promise of God’s rest by saying Yes to Jesus and following him in water baptism.

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)

“When your children ask their fathers in times to come, ‘What do these stones mean?’ ²²then you shall let your children know, ‘Israel passed over this Jordan on dry ground.’ ²³For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan for you until you passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up for us until we passed over, ²⁴so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, that you may fear the Lord your God forever.”
Joshua 4:21-24 (ESV)
