Mark’s Memos
Ask & Trust God for Miracles
The king of Jerusalem (Adoni-Zedek) had heard what the people of God had done to Jericho and Ai and how Gibeon had made a covenant with Israel (Josh. 10). He was afraid because Gibeon was a great city, greater than Ai and its men were mighty. So, Adoni-Zedek got the...
Don’t Make Treaties with the Enemy
“… but they did not seek the counsel of the Lord.” (Josh. 9:14) The people of Gibeon heard what the people of God had done to Jericho and Ai, so they pretended they had come from a faraway country to deceive the Israelites to entering into a covenant with them, which...

What to Do When You’ve Had a Setback

Is the Tithe ‘Cherem’?
But all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are consecrated to the LORD; they shall come into the treasury of the LORD." (Josh. 6:19) We’ve been seeing that God declared Jericho (the first city Israel would conquer in the Promised Land) as “cherem”...
Taking ‘Cherem’ Not Only Affects You, But Those Around You!
Last week we saw that God declared Jericho (the first city Israel would conquer in the Promised Land) as “cherem” which means devoted to God or devoted [doomed] to destruction (Josh. 6:17). And you, by all means abstain from the accursed things [cherem], lest you...
The Principle of ‘Cherem’
“Now the city shall be doomed by the LORD to destruction, it and all who are in it.” (Josh. 6:17) God told Joshua that Jericho, the first city in the Promised Land that they were to conquer would be doomed by the Lord to destruction (Josh. 6:17). The Hebrew word for...
Submitting Logic to the Word of the Lord
“By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days.” (Heb. 11:30) We’ve been looking at God’s strategy for Israel to take possession of Jericho (Josh. 6:1-9). Notice that the people had to be willing to do something for a week that...
