Standing Before Your Jericho

Scripture Reference: Joshua 5:13–15

Podcast Series: Unshakeable – A Daily Christian Devotional Podcast

Have you ever stood before your own Jericho—a challenge so vast, fortified, and immovable it left you wondering if you'd ever see breakthrough? In today's powerful daily devotional, Reverend Ben Cooper takes us on a deep prayer journey rooted in Joshua 5:13, where Joshua stood before Jericho’s massive walls, uncertain yet obedient, knowing that God's promise still stood firm.

This 5-minute devotional prayer is more than encouragement—it's a prophetic declaration for every believer facing battles too big for human strength. Whether you're dealing with health struggles, financial burdens, emotional trauma, family tension, or spiritual warfare, this devotion reminds you that God fights for you, and the walls in your life are already weakening by His power.

We explore the spiritual discipline of faithful persistence—mirrored in the Israelites walking around Jericho. Their actions didn’t make sense in the natural, yet obedience positioned them for supernatural victory. Today’s episode invites listeners to circle their own Jerichos in prayer, hearing the prophetic echo of “walls crumbling” even before breakthrough becomes visible.

This daily prayer encourages us to:

  • See our battles with eyes of faith, not fear.
  • Trust in God's voice more than the noise of the obstacle.
  • Obey even when the outcome is unclear.
  • Declare breakthrough before it’s seen.
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid… for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” – Joshua 1:9

This prayer devotion is your spiritual battle cry, reminding you that even when things seem impossible, God’s promise is already working in the unseen. The episode also touches on the spiritual strongholds in our minds, where fear and doubt can be the real Jericho we must overcome.

Practical Application:

Today, take 5 minutes to spiritually walk around your Jericho. Is it addiction? Debt? Grief? Anxiety? Speak God's promises over it. Don’t underestimate the power of daily prayer and consistent, quiet faithfulness.

the israelites to walk.
So, father, we are walking.
We are walking by faith, we aretrusting you, father, we are

measure life, whatever lens weuse to measure life, spirit of

(03:35):
the living god, will you fill usto the full measure because,
lord, as we look across theplanes of life, as we walk

We will see fortified citiesfall, we will see Goliaths fall.
We will see, dear God, rivers,open seas, be parted in the name

And wherever we are across theworld, we thank you that Jericho
