The story of Jericho in Joshua 6 teaches us powerful lessons about spiritual warfare. Just as the Israelites faced physical walls, believers today encounter spiritual strongholds—fortified ways of thinking that prevent us from claiming God's promises. These walls might be negative thinking, doubt, or community resistance to change. God's strategy for victory involves persistent prayer (circling our problems), following His presence, and declaring victory before seeing results. When the Israelites shouted in faith while the walls still stood, God brought them down. This pattern shows us how to overcome obstacles through faith, obedience, and praise—even before we see our circumstances change.
