Yeah, maybe she's all right. 03:50 Okay. 03:52 We're gonna take the city. 03:53 Okay. All right. Just act normal. 03:55 Just act normal. Just come on. 03:57 We'll just go together. 04:02 Hello. 04:03 Hello. 04:05 Oh, yes, 04:07 but someone, 04:11 someone has seen him. 04:13 And Rahab came over and said, 04:16 "I see, you're new in the city. 04:18 It's not really that safe here. 04:21 Why don't you come to my house?" 04:23 So the spies went to her house, 04:25 but somebody had been watching. 04:27 And they saw that Rahab had taken 04:30 some spies to her house. 04:33 And the spy said, 04:34 "The Lord God of Israel is going to take this city." 04:39 And she said, 04:40 "I know, we've heard about when you crossed the Red Sea." 04:43 And everybody here has always trembled 04:45 and such a great God that could part the Red Sea. 04:49 And as they were telling them about 04:52 how God would take this, 04:54 there was a knock. 04:56 Can you knock? Make a knock. 04:59 "Let us in in the name of the King. 05:02 Let us in." 05:04 Oh, no, what do we do? 05:05 Oh, dear. Oh, dear. What do we do? 05:06 Oh, no. Oh, no! 05:08 We're gonna have to do something. 05:09 Oh, dear. We'll hide them. 05:11 We'll hide them. We'll hide them. 05:12 Okay, get down underneath here. 05:13 Okay, come on, get down, get down. 05:15 We got to hide them. Okay. 05:16 All right, I'll put some straw on top they may not see them. 05:19 Okay. And so they covered him up. 05:21 They cover them up. 05:23 All of them, they cover them up. 05:25 And then the soldiers came marching. 05:27 "We saw two men come here. Where are they? 05:38 Where are those men?" 05:40 They were on the rooftop, but they didn't see him 05:43 because they were all covered up 05:44 and they didn't see him. 05:46 And Rahab said, "Well, well, maybe they... 05:49 I think they probably left the city. 05:51 And if you hurry, 05:53 if you really hurry, you can catch them." 05:55 "Which way did they go?" 05:57 "Well, maybe that way." 05:59 "Okay, let's go." 06:02 Stomp! Make noise like the soldiers. 06:04 Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp. 06:06 Yes. Oh, yes. 06:07 Oh. 06:09 And then Rahab said, 06:11 "Surely, surely, had God has given you into the hand..." 06:16 "After the God Almighty has given us into your hands, 06:19 so please, please, please, save. 06:25 Save me and my people. 06:27 Pray that my family, my father, my mother, 06:31 my relatives." 06:33 And the soldiers said, 06:34 "Because you have been so kind to us, 06:37 then I'll tell you what we'll do. 06:39 You take this scarlet cord." Put it right. 06:43 She had a hole on the wall 06:45 where she could see everything. 06:47 "Put it right there. 06:49 And when we see it, when God takes this city, 06:53 you stay there in the house 06:55 and tell we come and get you out safely. 06:58 And all that you have will be saved." 07:00 And she believed them. 07:02 So when it was night, you look this way. 07:09 "All clear, come on, come on." 07:11 And so they tied up the rope went down the city wall. 07:15 And then they ran as fast as they could. 07:18 And she had told them, 07:20 "You run into the wilderness and stay there three days." 07:22 Well, meanwhile, stop, 07:24 the soldiers were looking everywhere, all around. 07:27 "Have you seen these two men? 07:28 Have you seen these two men?" 07:31 But they were nowhere. 07:33 Nowhere at all. 07:35 So they... So after... 07:37 While Joshua's two spies came back to him, 07:39 and they told them all that had happened 07:41 and the promise they made to Rahab. 07:44 And then he said, "God has said 07:48 that He will give us the city." 07:49 Now we must put away our sins. 07:51 And now it's time to cross the Jordan. 07:54 It was very full. 07:55 The river was full there, Ben, 07:57 and it was rocking and going back and forth, 07:59 and it was like, "Wow." 08:01 The Jordan was really, really... 08:03 The water had to swirl up. 08:05 And as they came, he said 08:07 that's priest are going to step their foot into the water. 08:12 And as they stepped their foot into the water, 08:15 it will part and just as he said, 08:17 they stepped into the water. 08:19 And they had to leave a distance 08:20 all around the Holy Ark 08:22 because they carried the ark and priest, 08:24 and the waters parted, 08:25 and the water went clear back up this way, 08:28 and the other side went clear back up this way. 08:31 And then all of them started marching across. 08:36 And they marched over to the other side. 08:38 And then the priests came with the ark. 08:40 And when they stepped on the other side, whoa! 08:43 The water just covered up again. 08:45 And God was doing a miracle. 08:48 And God had told them, "Every day, 08:50 I want you to march around the city, 08:53 but don't say a word." 08:55 And so every day, just the sound of your feet. 08:58 Make your feet." 09:06 Day one, 09:09 day two. 09:10 Now we're on day two. 09:19 Day three, day four, 09:22 day five, day six. 09:27 Now something else was gonna happen. 09:30 Joshua said, "This is really very, very important 09:37 that you remember to do. 09:39 We must always obey God. 09:41 This battle could not be won 09:44 by the Israelite soldiers not even a little bit." 09:49 And meanwhile, 09:50 while they had been marching around, 09:52 the king was looking out the window 09:55 and all the warriors. 09:57 And everybody say, "What are we doing now?" 09:59 And the king wasn't feeling so brave 10:01 'cause this city was known 10:02 as one of the biggest worshippers of idols. 10:05 And he said, "Have you prayed to our gods?" 10:07 Yes, but they do nothing. 10:09 And he said, "Oh, what do we do? 10:12 Oh, Oh! Ah! Oh! 10:15 I'm so scared. What are they doing now? 10:17 They're marching around again. How dare! 10:19 Every day it's driving me crazy," said the King. 10:22 "What are we gonna do?" 10:23 Every day they march around, and they march around, 10:25 and they don't say anything, and then they go back. 10:27 I know. 10:29 It's almost on the seventh day. 10:31 It's about time for them to do it again. 10:34 Meanwhile, Rahab went to her relatives, 10:38 "Please, you must get in the house right away. 10:40 Now is the time that he told me about. 10:41 Bring anything that you want and come to my house. 10:44 You must come right away, please. 10:46 Today's the day, you must come right away. 10:48 Okay, come right away, come into the house. 10:50 All my family, come in the house 10:51 and then you'll be saved." 10:54 They're all there watching, wondering what would happen. 10:58 What would happen next? 11:00 But they knew Rahab said, we have... 11:02 "Check and see if the scarlet cord is still in the window." 11:05 And they looked and said, "Yes, it's right there." 11:07 "Then we'll be okay. 11:08 They promised if I had the scarlet cord, 11:10 we would be okay." 11:13 So then they began to march around the seventh time, 11:19 very quietly, very quietly... 11:22 Everyone, let's march around. They began to march around. 11:25 Slowly they went. 11:28 And not a sound where they to make until God said, 11:32 "I will tell you when to make a sound." 11:35 And he would tell them through Joshua. 11:37 And so very quietly, 11:39 they were marching, marching, marching. 11:42 And the people on the wall were like, 11:45 "What do you think is going on? 11:47 I think this is a little eerie. 11:48 They're not saying anything. 11:50 They're just marching. 11:51 What, what, what, what what's happening? 11:53 There they go. There they go. 11:54 What are they doing?" "I don't know. 11:57 I don't know," said the magicians. 11:58 "We can't do anything about it. 12:00 Our gods, they won't do anything, 12:02 they don't see, they don't hear, 12:03 they don't anything. 12:04 We're dealing with a god that's all knowing. 12:06 We're dealing with a God that can see, 12:08 and that they can know." 12:10 And they went around. 12:11 And after they had gone around one time, 12:16 two times, three times, four times, 12:20 five times, six times. 12:22 But the seventh time was different. 12:24 All of a sudden, the trumpets began to play. 12:33 And then there was a mighty shout. 12:37 "The Lord has given the city." 12:41 And now we're making more loud sounds. 12:44 The walls began to tumble down. 12:45 Whoa! Crash! 12:48 Whoa! Crash! 12:49 Oh, they've been crashing all around, 12:51 the walls were falling everywhere. 12:53 Everybody was scared, except for Rahab. 12:56 And they safely were able to get her out of the city 13:00 because she believed God, 13:02 and God saved her just at the end time. 13:05 God will save His children too. 13:07 When everything is happening around us 13:09 and walls are crashing down, 13:11 "We have a God that is coming soon. 13:14 Jesus will come in the clouds of heaven. 13:16 And all those that obey Him. 13:17 And all those that love Him will be able to be with Jesus 13:21 forever and ever and ever." 13:24 So you see, boys and girls, this is a true gem. 13:27 Always remember you have a faithful God. 13:30 Until next time, search your scriptures daily 13:34 that you'll find the hidden gems too. 13:36 Goodbye, boys and girls. 13:38 Goodbye. Goodbye! 13:40 God bless you. |
