Trust Not in Chariots Nor Horses

May 23, 2021    Matthew Savage

In Joshua chapter 11, we read the continuing conquest of Israel through the northern region of the promise land. As Israel takes possession of the promise land, we see the sovereignty of God and human responsibility working in tandem. God gives sovereign assurance and Israel acts with courage. In so doing, Israel finds the LORD to be faithful and wholly sufficient for all their needs. Indeed, even when Israel faces their greatest fear, God proves to be more than enough for them.
