Описание: TOPIC: WON BATTLES - JERICHO
TEXT: Joshua 6:1-27;

Introduction
Each battle of life has its own strategy, however there are principles that are eternally common to winning life’s battles. The battle of Jericho gives us some of these principles. As we learn from them, we trust God for grace to be doers of the word.
1. Winning in the battles of life begin from divine encounters with the Captain of the hosts of the LORD. Josh 5:13-15; eg
a. Gideon, Judges 6:11-24;
b. David 1Sam 23:2-6; 1Sam 30:7-8;
c. Israel, 2Chron 20:1-19;
d. Jesus Christ Luke 22:39-46;
2. Winning in the battles of life depends on receiving divine instructions Joshua 6:1-5; eg
a. Gideon Judges 7:1-11;
b. David 2Sam 2:1; 2Sam 5:18-25;
c. Israel, 2Chron 20:14-17;
3. Carefully following divine instructions will always result in victory Josh 6:6-24; Judges 7:1-25; 2Sam 5:25; Acts 16:6-10; Acts 18:9-11; Jas 1:22-25;
4. Never forget to keep promises Josh 2:12-21; Josh 6:22-25; Psa 15:4; 2Cor 1:18-20; James 5:12;
Conclusion
Life is simple if we learn to just follow divine instructions. From Adam till today, the downfall of man has been a refusal to do what God says to do. At the same time, winners have always been those who obey the Father at all times. Mat 7:24-27; Ezra 7:10. Seek his word and obey it - that’s the way we win our battles!
