Jericho: More To The Story

The wall of Jericho falling are a shadow pointing the Lord conquering the kingdom of the world on the last day to establish His eternal kingdom in the eternal promised land. All those who believe and are in union with the true Vine, the true Israel of God which is Christ will after their wilderness journey enter the eternal promised land on the new earth. Now as we live and walk on this earth we are living among the kingdoms of this world. However, on the last day when the wrath of God is poured out, the kingdom of the world will come the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ and He will reign forever. He will destroy the kingdom of the world on the last trumpet and with word coming out of His mouth which is the sharp sword as the walls will fall and He will establish His eternal kingdom. We like Rahab can enter and dwell in the promised land by faith. When the Israelites came to conquer the city, they looked for the scarlet cord in the window of Rahab and by her faith her life was spared, and she could dwell in the land. When the true Israel of God comes on the last day, He will be looking not for a scarlet cord tied in faith, but rather the scarlet blood of the Passover Lamb applied in faith. Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
