Joshua 7
With success comes Vulnerability

vs 3-5
'I can do this in my own strength'

The defeat is akin to a spiritual defeat..
Joshua took his eyes off God, to his self-confidence.

Turning defeat into victory.
Israel needed to repent!
- We need to repent also.
- Is there anything in our lives that hinders our devotion to God?

Your disobedience weakens the community.
We are one body.
1 Corinthians 12:12 - 31
Ephesians 5:22 - 33
The sin in one part of Israel (and the Church) affects the whole.

Joshua was open to the LORD and willing to learn from his mistake.
Achan - represents a malignancy in the heart of humanity.
A pathway that leads to personal defeat
vs 29, 30
