Joshua Prayed for Help

July 14, 2024

Passage: Joshua 10:1-14

Many people were fighting and not getting along. The king in
Jerusalem became frightened. He talked to other kings and they
all decided to fight back.
The people in Gibeon heard the news and sent a message to
Joshua. “Please don’t stay away. Come quickly and help us. All the
other kings are going to fight against us.”
So Joshua gathered all his men and all his best soldiers and
went to help the people in Gibeon.
God told Joshua not to be afraid. “No one will be able to stand
against you,” God said.
And Joshua believed God. Joshua knew God would show him
what to do.
Joshua’s men marched all night, then they surprised the
soldiers who wanted to hurt the people in Gibeon. God then sent a
hail storm.
Joshua talked to God after the storm. He asked God to keep the
sun bright in the sky a long time. That way Joshua’s men would be
able to see.
God heard Joshua’s prayer and did what Joshua asked. The sun
stood still and the moon stopped.
God helped Joshua’s army defeat Gibeon’s enemies. That day
Joshua and all the people knew God helped them.
