Personal Reflection & Small Group Questions

Please complete this study on your own, then bring it to your small group for discussion.

1. Looking back over your notes from this week’s sermon and text, what particularly caught your attention, challenged or confused you?

2. Why do you think the Ark of the Covenant was included in the procession around Jericho?

3. How often do you defeat your “Jerichos” with your own skills and methods? How can you better hand your battles over to God?

4. What specific, seemingly "insurmountable" wall are you currently facing where you need to rely on God's sovereignty rather than your own strength?

5. How does knowing that Jesus (the Greater Joshua) has already brought down the ultimate walls of sin and death change the way you view your earthly struggles today?

6. Take a moment this week to be silent with the Holy Spirit. Trust God, and watch how He turns your silent obedience into a shout of victory.
