God spoke to Joshua, “My servant Moses is dead, stand up and fight.”
Joshua sent two men to spy on the town of Jericho.
The two spies went to the house of a prostitute named Rahab.

That night Rahab, helped the spies escape.
The two men reported to Joshua that they could conquer the land.
So Joshua commanded the priests to take the Ark of the Covenant across the river.

Amazingly, God parted the water and they crossed on dry ground!
They built a memorial using twelve stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel.
Joshua became a great leader, winning the respect of the people.

One day an angel, a commander in the Lord’s army appeared to Joshua and gave him instructions.
Following the instructions, Joshua and his army marched around the walls of Jericho for six days.
The priests, carried the Ten Commandments.

On the seventh day when then the priests blew their horns, the walls of Jericho fell down.
Only Rahab and her family were saved, with the city’s treasure, which was given as an offering to the Lord.
One of Joshua’s soldiers, stole some of the treasure for himself.

At their next battle they suffered badly, God told Joshua, to seek out the man who stole the offering.
They found the treasure in the man’s tent, so he was put to death by stoning.
Once again, Joshua’s army was successful in battle.

In one battle, Joshua prayed for the sun to stand still and it did, until the enemy army was destroyed.
As were the leaders, who had hidden in a cave.
Eventually Joshua gained control over the whole land, just as God had promised.

Then there was peace in the land.
The Lord instructed Joshua to build cities.
Where accused persons would be treated justly.

One day Joshua paid tribute to three of the tribes of Israel.
But the other tribes misunderstood, so they built a monument, called the altar of witness, stating that there are twelve tribes in Israel.
When Joshua became an old man, he called together the leaders and the judges of Israel, and spoke to them.

He reminded them of their history and of their walk with God, Joshua said;
“As for me and my house we will serve the Lord.” The people answered;
“We will worship and obey the Lord alone.”

Then they erected a memorial stone and Joshua said;
“This stone will be a witness against you, if you go back on your promise.”
Soon after this Joshua died, at the age of one hundred and ten years.
