Jos 6:2, And the LORD said to Joshua: “SEE! I HAVE GIVEN JERICHO INTO YOUR HAND, ITS KING, AND THE MIGHTY MEN OF VALOR.
It’s already done in the eyes of God! HE HAS GIVEN (PASS TENSE) JERICHO INTO THEIR HANDS, BUT THEY HAD TO TAKE IT FROM HIM
Jos 6:17, Now the city shall be doomed by the LORD to destruction, it and all who are in it. ONLY RAHAB THE HARLOT SHALL LIVE, SHE AND ALL WHO ARE WITH HER IN THE HOUSE, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
GOD HAS MADE A WAY FOR ALL SINNERS, YES EVEN A HARLOT, MURDERER OR THIEF TO HAVE SALVATION! THE WORKS OF RAHAB ONLY CONFIRMED HER FAITH IN THE LIVING GOD!
JUST AS JERICHO WAS GIVEN TO THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL. THEY STILL NEEDED TO DO THE WORK OF RECEIVING WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN GIVEN! IT’S A GIFT OF THE LORD!
Eph 2:8-9, For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANYONE SHOULD BOAST.
TAKE IT AND LIVE, FOR HE IS THE ONLY TRUE WAY FOR SALVATION!
