The Enemy Within: Achan’s Sin and the Corporate Consequences of Covenant BreakingRight after Jericho’s triumph, Israel fell at Ai (Joshua 7:1–5, NKJV). Why? In this episode, we trace the chain from hidden covetousness to corporate collapse, and the path back to restored presence and victory.What we cover• Victory to defeat — when confidence shifts from the Divine Warrior to human strategy (Joshua 7:1–5).• Joshua’s crisis & God’s rebuke — “Get up… Israel has sinned” (Joshua 7:6–10, 11).• Ḥērem & shālal — devoted things and forbidden plunder; why Achan’s act imperilled the whole nation (Joshua 7:1, 11, 21).• The divine search — tribe → family → household, exposing the “enemy within” (Joshua 7:13–26).• Heart-work — “I, the LORD, search the heart” (Jeremiah 17:10, NKJV); beware covetousness (Luke 12:15, NKJV).• Hope after judgment — renewed obedience and fresh mission (Joshua 8:1–29).Key Texts (NKJV): Joshua 7; Jeremiah 17:10; Luke 12:15; Psalm 139:23–24.Response: Repent of hidden sin, restore integrity, and walk in covenant obedience with confidence in God’s presence.If this helps you, please like, comment, and share it with a friend who’s studying Joshua.#️⃣ Hashtags#BibleTalkInsight #TheEnemyWithin #Joshua7 #Achan #Ai #Covenant #Holiness #Obedience #HiddenSin #CorporateResponsibility #Leadership #Jeremiah1710 #Luke1215 #Psalm139 #OldTestament #BibleStudy #AmswersFromScripture
