Joshua 5.9-15

"The Lord told Joshua, "It was a disgrace for my people to be slaves
in Egypt, but now I have taken away that disgrace." So the Israelites
named the place Gilgal, and it still has that name.

Israel continued to camp at Gilgal in the desert near Jericho, and on
the fourteenth day of the same month, they celebrated Passover.

The next day, God stopped sending the Israelites manna to eat each
morning, and they started eating food grown in the land of Canaan.
They ate roasted grain and thin bread made of the barley they had
gathered from nearby fields.

Israel Captures Jericho

One day, Joshua was near Jericho when he saw a man standing some
distance in front of him. The man was holding a sword, so Joshua
walked up to him and asked, "Are you on our side or on our enemies'
side?"

"Neither," he answered. "I am here because I am the commander of the
Lord's army."

Joshua fell to his knees and bowed down to the ground. "I am your
servant," he said. "Tell me what to do."

"Take off your sandals," the commander answered. "This is a holy place."

So Joshua took off his sandals."

God bless you.

Luke 8:40-56 (GNT) 40 When Jesus returned to the other side of the lake, the people welcomed him, because they had all been waiting for him. 41 Then a man named Jairus arrived; he was an official in the local synagogue. He threw himself down at Jesus' feet and begged him to go to his home, 42 because his only daughter, who was twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus went along, the people were crowding him from every side. 43 Among them was a woman who had suffered from severe bleeding for twelve years; she had spent all she had on doctors, but no one had been able to cure her. 44 She came up in the crowd behind Jesus and touched the edge of his cloak, and her bleeding stopped at once. 45 Jesus asked, "Who touched me?" Everyone denied it, and Peter said, "Master, the people are all around you and crowding in on you." 46 But Jesus said, "Someone touched me, for I knew it when power went out of me." 47 The woman saw that she had been found o...

Luke:2.1 Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth. Luke:2.2 This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. Luke:2.3 And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city. Luke:2.4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, Luke:2.5 in order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child. Luke:2.6 While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth. Luke:2.7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

John 21.1-19 Jesus Appears to Seven Disciples "Jesus later appeared to his disciples along the shore of Lake Tiberias. Simon Peter, Thomas the Twin, Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, and the brothers James and John, were there, together with two other disciples. Simon Peter said, "I'm going fishing!" The others said, "We will go with you." They went out in their boat. But they didn't catch a thing that night. Early the next morning Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize who he was. Jesus shouted, "Friends, have you caught anything?" "No!" they answered. So he told them, "Let your net down on the right side of your boat, and you will catch some fish." They did, and the net was so full of fish that they could not drag it up into the boat. Jesus' favorite disciple told Peter, "It's the Lord!" When Simon heard that it was the Lord, he put on the clothes that...
