Tonight's family reading · Hualien
The Walls of Jericho — a 5-minute devotion for Hualien 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.
This works best in Hualien as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Joshua 6 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "trusting instructions that look strange"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
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. Hualien 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.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
