And Joshua did as he was told, carefully obeying all the commands that the Lord had given to Moses.

16So Joshua conquered the entire region—the hill country, the entire Negev, the whole area around the town of Goshen, the western foothills, the Jordan Valley,11:16 Hebrew the Shephelah, the Arabah. the mountains of Israel, and the Galilean foothills. 

No one in this region made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites of Gibeon. All the others were defeated. 20For the Lord hardened their hearts and caused them to fight the Israelites. So they were completely destroyed without mercy, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to become obedient to your desire, above my own dysfunctional one. Bless me with your Peace and use it to guide me thru this day. Allow your army to defeat what ever stands in your plan for me. Cause Peace to flourish in my day.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
