Just think, the God we serve can make the sun stand still, or make it rotate with the earth as if it was standing still. If the wind and waves obey Him, and the sun and moon are obedient, shouldn’t we be obedient also? This is how we show our love to God, through obedience.
On the day the Lord gave the Israelites victory over the Amorites, Joshua prayed to the Lord in front of all the people of Israel. He said, “Let the sun stand still over Gibeon,and the moon over the valley of Aijalon.” 13 So the sun stood still and the moon stayed in place until the nation of Israel had defeated its enemies.Is this event not recorded in The Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky, and it did not set as on a normal day. 14 There has never been a day like this one before or since, when the Lord answered such a prayer. Surely the Lord fought for Israel that day!
Joshua 10:12c-14
