Daily Devotional

Rahab had everything working against her when it came to receiving God’s grace. She was a Gentile with no covenant relationship with God. She was an Amorite, part of the very people God had marked for judgment. She was a prostitute, living in open rebellion against God’s design for sexuality and relationships. By every human standard, she was the last person who should have been saved.

Yet grace doesn’t follow human logic. Grace doesn’t check references or require character recommendations. Grace doesn’t wait for people to clean up their act before extending an invitation. Grace goes where religious people would never go and saves people that religious people would never save.

What’s remarkable about Rahab’s story is that her faith was built on very little information. She had heard about the Red Sea crossing and some military victories. That was it. She didn’t have a Bible, a pastor, or even a friend to explain the Gospel to her. But she heard testimony about what God had done for His people, and that was enough to spark faith in her heart.

This reminds us that our testimonies matter. When we share what God has done in our lives, we’re providing the very evidence that can build faith in others. We don’t need to be theologians to be witnesses. We just need to tell others what we’ve seen God do.
