Rahab the Harlot

 

Rahab said, “And as soon as we heard these things, our hearts melted; neither did there remain any more courage in anyone because of you, for the Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.” (Joshua 2:11)

 

Rahab said that all the people of the city were afraid, but she was the only one who aimed her life to line up with God’s ways. She was a prostitute, in a house of ill-repute. But she had faith in God and she acted on it by working with His people, and because of it she is included in the lineage of the Messiah.

 

Most people think that they must clean up their lives before being accepted into the Kingdom of Heaven. The fact is that God wants you just the way you are. Believe in Him and see what He can do for YOU!
