Day 117: Joshua dominates the Kings of the North | Jesus raises from the dead and appears to his followers

In Joshua chapters 11 and 12, Joshua leads the Israelites in a series of decisive battles against northern Canaanite kings, culminating in a sweeping victory at the Waters of Merom, where they decisively defeat a massive coalition of enemy forces. After this, the text details Joshua’s continued conquests across the land, systematically overcoming kingdoms and recording the defeat of 31 kings in total, showcasing God's unwavering support for Israel. As Joshua's campaign brings more territories under Israelite control, one wonders: Can any force withstand Joshua's God-empowered onslaught?In Luke 24:1-35, the narrative unfolds with the women discovering Jesus' empty tomb and encountering angels who reveal that Jesus has risen. This incredible news is initially met with disbelief among the disciples until Jesus himself appears and walks with two of them on the road to Emmaus, though they don't recognize him immediately. As they share a meal and Jesus breaks bread, their eyes are opened and they realize who He is, but He vanishes from their sight. Will the disciples be able to convince others of this miraculous encounter?Support the show at Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/storymasterJoshua 11Joshua 12Luke 24:1-35Psalm 51: 10-19
