The Walls of Jericho — a 5-minute devotion for Uptown families

Joshua 6 · Trusting instructions that look strange

God's instructions made no military sense: walk around the city once a day for six days, then seven times on the seventh, and shout. They did it. The walls fell outward.

Parents in Uptown often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Joshua 6 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "trusting instructions that look strange" is harder than it sounds.

Memory verse

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.”
Joshua 1:9

Table question

What is one thing God asks of us that feels strange but worth trying?

30-second prayer

Lord, we like plans that make sense. Help us trust yours when they do not. Amen.

Make it stick: write "Joshua 1:9" on the fridge tonight. Every time someone in the house opens it this week, they say the verse out loud. Uptown kids find this funnier than it deserves, which is exactly why it works.

Tomorrow: Rahab's red cord (Joshua 2). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s
