On the Lord's Side

In Joshua 5–6, we see that being on the Lord’s side is not about God taking our side, but us surrendering to His. Israel is called to trust God’s strange plan, walk in obedience, and depend on His power—and in doing so, they learn that the Lord Himself fights for His people. Ultimately, this points us to Christ, who has won the greater victory over sin for all who trust in Him.
