…at the time when kings go out to battle… 2 Samuel 11.1

It was time for war, and David decided to rest.

He thought it was not necessary to go to war.

But how could he remain away from the war, if it was time for war?

How would Joshua leave us his testimony, if he had not gone to war?

If I want to give my testimony tomorrow, there is no other alternative.

Before Joshua’s eyes stood a great and strong wall.

But he had a PROPHECY within himself, which was bigger and stronger than that wall.

Joshua had to do what we should do every day:

Decide what to keep: The wall that was in front of his eyes or the PROPHECY he had received.

The fact that Joshua risked his own life was evidence that he put all his strength in the PROPHECY.

Our strength is always put into what we keep.

He considered the PROPHECY to be more SOLID AND REAL than the wall that stood before him.

The Israel Challenge is for those who are of war!
