Church, we are now in Week 3 of our Armed for Battle series, and today we arrive at a threshold moment — not only in Israel’s journey, but in ours.
Israel has left the wilderness.
The promise is in sight.¬
Jericho is visible.
The enemy is aware.
And yet — no battle is fought.
Why?
Because God does not rush His people into warfare until they are spiritually positioned.
Before external battles, there must be internal alignment.
Before warfare, identity.
Before strategy, surrender.
Before victory, consecration.
Because warfare in the kingdom of God never begins with swords. It begins with surrender.
