The Unprecedented and Never - Repeated Answer(Joshua 10:12~14)

  On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”(12)

Hymn #302 The Mercy of God is an Ocean Divine(Unified Hymn 408)

  Joshua understood clearly what Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation meant. He challenged towards the unprecedented and never-repeated answers when the Amorite army invaded. In times of crises, God prepared unprecedented and never-repeated answers. Joseph. who realized only the Gospel and world evangelization, was sold as a slave. Later, God made him prime minister(Genesis 41:38). When the Israelites were at the brink of death, Jochebed and Moses were given unprecedented and never-repeated answers(Exodus 2:1~10). Jethro, Joshua, and Caleb, who helped Moses, received this answer.

1. The Beginning
  Accurately holding onto the covenant and challenging towards the absolute impossible is the start of what’s unprecedented and never-repeated. During the time when the kings of the Amorites invaded Israel, God told Joshua that all of them were given into his hands and that not one of them would be able to withstand him(Joshua 10:8). Afterward, large hailstones were hurled down to strike the enemy(Joshua10:11). Likewise, even if you’ve faced dire situations, you can overcome what’s absolutely impossible if you hold onto the accurate covenant.

2. The Process
  When things look completely impossible, you must hold onto God’s absolute plan. As night approached and the Israelites were unable to catch up to the escaping Amorite united forces, Joshua called out to the Lord in an urgent prayer(Joshua 10:12). Joshua had already seen God who was with Moses in the wilderness, and more importantly, he had received the promise of entering Canaan. Like so, nobody can block God’s absolute plan.

3. The Answer
  The absolute answer came. Joshua prayed an authoritative prayer toward the sun and the moon, and the sun stopped until he gained vengeance. Joshua knew God’s Will and kept praying without giving up. Just as God heard Joshua’s prayer that day, there must be a day when He hears your voice as well.

  Like Moses and Elijah, you too must gain the experience from Mt. Horeb. God prepared the unprecedented and never-repeated answers when you face the greatest hardships. Even the Early Church held onto the unprecedented and never-repeated Word from the Mt. of Olives during the greatest time of crisis and carried out world evangelization.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me hold onto the important covenant and the unprecedented and never-repeated absolute covenant. Although night approaches, help me hold onto the absolute goal. As I pray to You Lord, help me receive the unprecedented and never-repeated answer as I enjoy the absolute answer. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
