God reinforces His promise to Israel that Canaan is to be their new homeland and they will be able to conquer it - by faith and obedience.
It is a daunting task and yet God will be enabling them and supernaturally putting a fear in the people they are to overthrow. Israel will be successful and victorious to the extent they are willing to proceed with their faith and confidence in God.
The city of Jericho was the place they would begin their takeover and it is in the city one of the most likely people will prove to be a help God has provided for Israel. A woman named Rahab, who had been a prostitute, has placed her faith in the God of Israel and will act upon that faith by helping 2 spies Joshua has sent in to scout out Jericho.
This supernaturally inspired historical account reveals the hand of God upon the whole situation. He will use ordinary, imperfect, human instruments to accomplish His perfect plans and purposes.
We can also take great encouragment from the changed life of Rahab and the New Testament testimony that what she did was "by faith."
