The Walls of Jericho

Once upon a time, in the ancient city of Jericho, there lived a people who were devoted to their God. They had built a great wall around the city to protect them from their enemies. But one day, a great army appeared on the horizon, led by a man named Joshua.

Joshua had been sent by God to lead the people of Israel into the Promised Land. He had been given a special mission: to take the city of Jericho. But the walls of Jericho were too strong for the Israelites to break through.

So Joshua and the Israelites prayed to God for help. God answered their prayers and gave them a plan. He told them to march around the city walls once a day for six days. On the seventh day, they were to march around the walls seven times, and then blow their trumpets.

The Israelites followed God’s instructions. On the seventh day, they marched around the walls seven times and blew their trumpets. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho began to shake and crumble. The Israelites were amazed!

The people of Jericho were terrified. They knew that God had given the Israelites the victory. They surrendered to Joshua and the Israelites took the city.

The story of the walls of Jericho teaches us an important lesson. It shows us that when we put our trust in God, He will always be faithful to us. No matter how strong our enemies may seem, God is always stronger. He will always be with us and will never leave us.

The moral of the story is that we should always trust in God. He is our protector and our strength. He will never leave us or forsake us. We can always rely on Him to be with us and to give us the victory.
