Joshua's Hindrances to Victory

Joshua Hindrances To Victory

We seen in the last lesson that it only takes one person with their feet down to halt victory. I remember riding the merry-go-round at Troy camp. It was easy going and fun until someone put their feet down and then you had to push against the pressure. God can still work under pressure, but I tell you victory will come so much quicker if we all have our feet up if we won’t drag our heels and let God work as he wants.

Compromise with worldliness will always quench the Spirit 9:4

And made a league with the Gibonites / Difference between league with Gibonites and allowing Rahab and her family to join.

The enemy will work wilily to get you to compromise be careful (caution signs) Things are not always as it seems Lack of prayer and watchfulness makes us vulnerable to the enemies schemes

i. And asked not counsel of the Lord /

Disobedience costs and will always quench the Spirit

May have gained some workers, but also thorn in the flesh and source of temptation. Had to fight and waste their energy Slacking Up Will Quench The Spirit 13:1 There remains yet very much land to be possessed

The complete victory God had for Israel has never been gained

i. Has the complete victory God had in mind for the Holiness Movement been gained

1. What about the Wichita Bible Holiness Church?
