Explanation of the Directive God gave Joshua in regard to the wall of Jericho and the number seven. Pax conquered Jericho this gloom in F3 fashion thanks to a phone call from Quattro on December of 2019 planting a seed for the original beatdown on 12/2019 and quoting the verses from Joshua 6:4-5,20-21 New King James Version (NKJV). Round #1 – Karaoke around the circle switching directions at halfway and complete 7 hand release merkins. Round #2 – Nur around the circle and complete 21 LBC’s. Round #3 – side shuffle around the circle switching directions at halfway and complete Aiken legs – 7 squats, 7 box jumps, 7 lunges (10 each Leg), 7 split Jacks (7 each Leg). Round #4 – high knees around the circle and complete ATM’s – 7 alternating “merkin” shoulder taps, 7 tempo merkins, and 7 fast merkins. Round # 5 – Lieutenant Dan around the circle and complete 7 four count mountain climbers.

F3 Message 11/08/25
Joshua 6:4-5,20-21 New King James Version (NKJV)
4 And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. But the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. 5 It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him.” 20 So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. 21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
I had just finished speaking. I was talking with two men, and the subject was manhood and what it really means. In the course of our solving many of the world’s problems, I learned that one of the men had a black belt or its equivalent in three different forms of martial arts. I hired him as my bodyguard. Well, almost. The man has the ability to take control of most any hostile situation – except for one. He told me there is only one position in which a person is totally powerless, no matter how strong or how skilled they are: lying face down on the ground. You’re absolutely powerless there.
I’m Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “The Power of Powerlessness.”
When Mr. Black Belt told me about the total vulnerability of being face down on the ground, General Joshua flashed into my mind. That’s Joshua as in the Book of Joshua in the Bible. In fact, there’s a wonderful blueprint for winning life’s unwinnable battles in the account of Joshua’s most powerless moment. It’s recorded in Joshua 5, beginning with verse 13, and it’s our word for today from the Word of God.
Joshua is leading the Jews into the Promised Land that God has said He would give to them. But immediately, they come upon this massive, seemingly impregnable city; the walls are looming toward the sky. It’s the world’s oldest city, Jericho. There’s no way Joshua’s going to breach those walls with anything he knows how to do. You know what? You may be facing one of those “Jerichos” in your life right now, where the size of the challenge is a lot greater than the resources you have.
So, this one’s for you. Joshua 5 says, “When Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and he saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword. Joshua went up to him and asked, ‘Are you for us or for our enemies?’ ‘Neither,’ he replied, ‘but as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.’ Then Joshua fell face down to the ground in reverence, and asked him, ‘What message does my Lord have for His servant?'”
Here’s Joshua, the man who has never lost a battle, going face down on the ground in the most powerless position a man can be in. I don’t think Joshua ever surrendered to anyone. But standing before the Commander of the Army of the Lord, he falls down in total surrender. Most Bible scholars believe this “Commander” is actually the Son of God making one of His pre-Bethlehem appearances in the Old Testament.
Face down before Jesus. Could that be where He wants you right now? Maybe that’s the only way you’re ever going to conquer your Jericho; the only way you’re ever going to have peace. When Joshua surrendered, God gave him the miracle plan that pulverized the walls of Jericho. The issue wasn’t really the conquest of Jericho; it was the conquest of Joshua. The issue in your life really isn’t the conquest of your impossible challenge; it’s the conquest of you. It sometimes takes a “Jericho” to level some of us Joshuas.
It could be that you’ve given Jesus everything: your talent, your time, your money, your service; everything but one thing. Control. It’s still my way, my will, my agenda, my plans, my timing. There’s someone or something that you’re still holding tightly in your hands, and you’re afraid or you’re unwilling to surrender control. And, consequently, your Jerichos will remain standing.
The most powerful position in the world is powerlessness. The secret of peace; the secret of the release of God’s power into your situation is total surrender. At that point, He will commit all His forces to the battles in front of you. To finally surrender is to finally win.

Protect Your Temple: Day 1 • Devotional Take Care of Your Body If you are over 30, you may recall an early ad campaign from the sportswear company Under Armor in which a football player gives a motivational speech to his teammates. Towards the end, he states, “We must protect this house! Will you protect this house!” When I think about my house, I typically think about my family and physical home. What about your physical body? Don’t we dwell within our bodies? In 1 Corinthians 3:16, Paul writes, “Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?” Later, Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 6:19, “Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God?” Our bodies are temples where the Holy Spirit dwells. God gave us only one body in this life. Our families, friends, and livelihood depend on our physical bodies functioning at a high level. Taking care of our bodies is our responsibility. Like many things in life, we have a choice. Do you do things to take care of your body or not? Do you treat your body with respect? Do you get proper nourishment? Do you get enough exercise? Do you get enough rest? This plan will encourage you to take better care of your body and physical health. We must protect this house!

3rd F This is the scripture I used for 2 morning devotions at youth camp the last 2 weeks.
Ephesians 5:8-14 ESV [8] for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light [9] (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), [10] and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. [11] Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. [12] For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. [13] But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, [14] for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
https://bible.com/bible/59/eph.5.8-14.ESV 2 Corinthians 4:6 ESV [6] For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Fire is sometimes used to represent life. As you saw that can be snuffed out by the world, but we have an eternal light that is shining through us. Engaging to Impact is simple a smile, hug, holding a door, or saying an encouraging word.
Matthew 5:14-16 ESV [14] “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. [15] Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. [16] In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Luke 8:16 ESV [16] “No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 1 Peter 5:6-10 ESV A good affirmation that you are not alone in your struggles. There is season for everything. God will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
