Sun & Moon Stood Still (POWER)

Can you imagine living through a day where the sun didn’t go down? Wouldn’t that be weird? Wouldn’t you assume that something crazy is going on? Well this actually happened in the Old Testament & I had to read it a couple of times to make sure I was reading it correctly & sure enough I was. 

 Joshua 10 says…

“Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:

“Sun, stand still over Gibeon,
    and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
¹³ So the sun stood still,
    and the moon stopped,
    till the nation avenged itself on^[b] its enemies,

as it is written in the Book of Jashar.

The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.”

How amazing is it that the sun & moon stood still and the sun didn’t go down for a whole day! Hard to believe right, but if it’s in the Bible it is absolute truth.

Just think, if God can give an ordinary man (Joshua) the power to control the sun & the moon, then what do you think He can do in your life? We receive great power in trusting Jesus as our Savior through the Holy Spirit and I think sometimes (myself included) believers fail to utilize this power to its fullest. Great things can happen when you follow Christ. Stop being content with ordinary things & “just getting by” & allow God to transform your life. If you come near to Him….He will come near to you (James 4:8).

The next time you admire a sunset or sunrise, remember the day the sun & moon stood still.
