16Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah. 17And Joshua was informed: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
18So Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and post men there to guard them. 19But you, do not stop there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Do not let them reach their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20So Joshua and the Israelites continued to inflict a terrible slaughter until they had finished them off, and the remaining survivors retreated to the fortified cities. 21The whole army returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one dared to utter a word against the Israelites.
Conquered
Joshua ordered that the five kings be imprisoned in the cave so the battle could continue until the enemy armies were totally conquered.
The enemy army inside us needs to be totally conquered too! Only Jesus can do that when we are born again. He removes us from the enemies book and adds us the the Book of Life! This can only happen when you fully surrender yourself to Jesus and accept Him as your Lord and Savior.
Which book will contain your name?
Blessings
