Everyone has suffered losses in their lives, because we have failed to pray before engaging in some kind of battle, having forged ahead in our own understanding and fleshly power. Today’s passage has great news for you: God allows us to return to those battle scenes of defeat, but this time with the wisdom and power of God. Please open your Bible to Joshua chapter eight, verse three, and listen as we rejoin Pastor Ray Viola in his discussion of what we can learn from Israel’s conquest of Ai.
