Joshua Summer Series 2026
Session 5 Companion Devotional
Joshua 7:1–8:35 | Returning to God Through Repentance
Main Idea
God's grace restores those who humbly return to Him.
Key Scripture
Joshua 7:13
“Get up! Consecrate the people...”
This Week's Reflection
Israel's defeat at Ai revealed that hidden sin affects more than the individual. Yet the story does not end in failure. God lovingly called His people to repentance, restored them, and renewed their mission. As you begin this week's journey, remember that God meets honest repentance with abundant grace.
Daily Reading Journey
This Week's Faith Step

Prayer
Lord, thank You that Your mercy is greater than my failures. Restore my heart and help me walk faithfully with You. Amen.
Memory Verse
Joshua 7:13
Shareable Thought
