Joshua 2:9-11 And she said to the men, I know that the Lord has given you the land and that your terror is fallen upon us and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you.10For we have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the [east] side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed. 11When we heard it, our hearts melted, neither did spirit or courage remain any more in any man because of you, for the Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.
YES, GOD USED A PROSTITUTE for His GLORY! What I find amazing was actually not so much that He used a prostitute, but one that was actively still in her sin. This by itself should make some of you sit up, and begin to repent of all the thoughts and ways you have treated our Sunday morning guests. Not just them, but also those that you have spoke of, or against in your own families, and work groups! She would've never known that God plan was to give her land over unless she was a friend of GOD. Why do I say that, well it says in John 15:15
I do not call you servants (slaves) any longer, for the servant does not know what his master is doing (working out). But I have called you My friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from My Father. [I have revealed to you everything that I have learned from Him.]
So let's be clear, EVERY PERSON LIVING; beit a prostitute, a drug dealer, no matter their racial ethnicity, or drug addict.....we were all created by GOD! No matter the depth of their sin, or the depth that they are in or practicing their sin, THEY CAN, WE CAN still reach out to have a relationship with our HOLY FATHER, and make no mistake about it, HE can still use us, and love us right OUT of our sin! So that being said, let's put on some new glasses, and LOVE GOD (for He's deserving of all of our affection) and LOVE PEOPLE because.....OUR FATHER desires us to, and we too loved to be loved!
