Defended

Reading Joshua 10:1-15 (NLT) ~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. The Gibeonites’ deception was an act of faith that the LORD would do what the LORD said He would do. Jacob’s deception and the consequences of his lies. The Gibeonites were known to have strong warriors. Just like all the other victories, this was an act of God. The LORD through them into a panic and the hailstorm that killed more than the Israelites killed with their swords. The LORD didn’t use the Amorite kings to take out the people who tricked God’s people into a treaty, instead He rescued them.  Even in the Old Testament we see examples of people turning to God.
