Joshua had to have gotten frustrated while he led the Israelites around the city of Jericho. People had to have started to complain.
"it's hot!"
"i'm tired!"
"i have to go to the bathroom!"
In my mind i see Joshua reaching his boiling point, turning around and saying "stop that or we're going to turn this army around and we'll go home!"
But the key to the walls of Jericho falling was the children of Israel marching around the city all 7 times.
When God calls us He expects our complete obedience. How many times do we expect God to come through us, but we've not obeyed Him completely. We attend church when it's convenient. We give when we want to. We pray every so often. Give give God only oart of our livrs but we want to reap the full benefit of His power and blessing.
God wants all of us because He wants to use all of us. He has a plan for every part of us. So when God sets a task in front of us, He wants our full attention and focus. So let's give Him what He deserves...all of us!
