That's Why I Worship - Rahab

Today, Pastor White talks to us about the story of Rahab. Rahab was a "harlot" or prostitute, in the city of Jericho. As a prostitute, she lived on the edge of society, one stop short of rejection. Her house, builit right into the city wall, provided both lodging and favors to travelers. Here is were she shared the general mood of fear with the rest of Jericho's population, she alone turned to the Lord for her salvation. Her faith gave her the courage to hide Israelite spies and lie to the authorities. Why would she take the risk? Rahab sensed that the Israelites relied on a God worth trusting. God works thru people like Rahab whom were inclined to rejection. God remembers her because of her faith and not her profession.
