Joshua 5:15 The commander of the LORD’s army replied, “Take off your sandals,
for the place where you are standing is holy.” And Joshua did so.
Exodus 3:5 Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the
place where you are standing is holy ground.”
1. Find Holy Ground
What do we need to “take off”:
Our Past
Our Pride
Our Pre-occupations
2. Gain Holy Perspective
Joshua 6:1 – Now the gates of Jericho were securely barred because of the
Israelites. No one went out and no one came in.
Joshua 6:2 – Then the Lord said to Joshua, “See, I have delivered Jericho into
your hands, along with its King and its fighting men"
Joshua 6:3-5 March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for
six days. Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the ark.
On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests
blowing the trumpets. When you hear them sound a long blast on the
trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will
collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in.”
3. Act with Holy Obedience
