Things are not what they seem …

1.Rahab heard the stories Joshua 2:8-11

Things are not what they seem … Before the spies lay down for the night, she went up on the roof and said to them, “I know that the LORD has given you this land and that a great fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you. We have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites east of the Jordan, whom you completely destroyed.

Things are not what they seem … When we heard of it, our hearts melted in fear and everyone’s courage failed because of you, for the LORD your God is God in heaven above and on the earth below.

Things are not what they seem … 2.Rahab assessed her situation. 3.Rahab came to a conclusion and a conviction 4.Rahab’s conviction led to some actions

Things are not what they seem … Joshua 2:12-13 “Now then, please swear to me by the LORD that you will show kindness to my family, because I have shown kindness to you. Give me a sure sign that you will spare the lives of my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all who belong to them—and that you will save us from death.”

Things are not what they seem … Kindness is wholly undeserved mercy and favour

Things are not what they seem … 5.Rahab embraced a new potential future and walked into it with eyes wide open 6.Rahab received the reward of faith

Things are not what they seem … Hebrews 11:13-15 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Things are not what they seem … Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

Things are not what they seem … Living in the land of the future as I see it Living in the land of the future as God sees it Point of letting go and letting come
