Joshua 6: 20b
...And the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight ahead, and they took the city.
Archaeologists have found Jericho's walls lying flat, having crumbled outward! They couldn't have been pushed in from outside, it fell outward. So there is no question that it was God pushing those walls down so that Israel could conquer them.
They obeyed Joshua as he told them what God had told him. This was the only time they staged a battle this way, which doesn't make much sense at all: To march around the city once each day, giving them a trumpet concert. Then on the seventh day, to extend the concert to last through seven times marching around the city; then the people shouted and the walls fell! Not a recommended battle strategy.
God always makes it obvious when He does something spectacular, doesn't He? If we're only willing to see it.
God is still the same God He was back then. He works with His Word, as He always has, and still performs miracles today. He's doing spectacular things today in the World, and we must be willing to see Him in the workings and doings that are taking place around us all.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
