The Elements Obeyed Him
Thursday, December 4, 2025Key Verse
“And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies” (Joshua 10:13).
Text — Joshua 10:7–24
Message
Doctor R.G Lee said, “Any man that has enough sense to make a clock certainly has enough sense to stop it.” So God who brought the universe into existence by spoken words can do anything He pleases with that universe and its numerous elements. Our text today reveals God’s control over His creatures as the sun standing still as an actual historical event. Laws of nature are simple processes which God has set in motion but because He is sovereign He can also alter, suspend, reverse or even cancel at any time. Joshua needed daylight to defeat his enemies in a battle and prayed to God to make the sun stand still. In response, God did not only stop the sun but also unleashed a storm of hail and fire on the enemies, helping the Israelites to victory.
Nothing is hard for God to do. Therefore, sinning youths can have their miracle of salvation and all believers can have healing, success, sanctification, deliverance and uncommon miracles. God will break protocol for you as you go out today. Have faith and ask according to God’s will.
