In this sermon, we delve into Joshua 11, where the Israelites, led by Joshua, face a formidable coalition of 14 kings who unite to fight against them. Despite the overwhelming opposition, the central message underscores God’s unwavering support for Israel. The narrative highlights the importance of relying on God rather than on one's own strength or the strength of worldly tools. This is exemplified by God's instruction to hamstring the horses and burn the chariots of their enemies, symbolizing the rejection of dependence on military might. The sermon further emphasizes the consistency of God’s character across both Old and New Testaments, illustrating that true victory and strength come from trusting in God, even in the face of fear and seemingly insurmountable odds. This lesson encourages believers to find their security and confidence in their covenant relationship with God, rather than in their own abilities or external resources.
