In this chapter we come to the end of the corporate conquest story of the Promised Land by Joshua and all of Israel. There is much more to come as each tribe settles in to their own territories. However, here in chapter eleven we see that there was total triumph for the nation Israel. How did they do that? What were some crucial things for total triumph to occur? That is what we learn in chapter eleven as Joshua moves out to claim the northern territory of the Promised Land. There is wonderful application in this section for each of us for living victoriously.

I John 5:4 “for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
