Do What You Say // Joshua 9:1-21

After a mountaintop moment of worship and victory, Israel walks straight into deception. In Joshua 9, the Gibeonites trick God’s people into making a binding oath—because Israel failed to seek the Lord’s direction. The result? A costly reminder that our words matter. This message explores the danger of relying on our own understanding, the seriousness of truth and integrity before God, and why keeping your word reflects the character of the God of truth. From Joshua’s mistake to the greater faithfulness of King Jesus, we’re reminded: don’t speak lightly—do what you say.
