About this resource

A printable pause with Scripture

The physical action of hiding the spies makes Rahab the scene’s clear agent. The incomplete wall and household give readers room to reflect on strategy, covenant and protection.

The page is intentionally spacious. Read the passage before drawing, then use the unfinished lines as a beginning rather than a puzzle with one correct answer. You may add words, symbols, colour or a written prayer alongside the picture.

This printable works for private reflection, a family table, an older children’s group or a quiet church activity. Give people permission to leave some space untouched. The aim is careful attention to Scripture, not a polished piece of art.

Passage context

Israel is preparing to cross the Jordan, and Joshua sends two men to survey Jericho. The king learns of their presence and orders Rahab to hand them over.

Devotional introduction

Rahab is the active figure in the foreground, making a rapid strategic choice. The unfinished household and cord keep her negotiated responsibility for family safety in view.

Reflect

Rahab assesses danger, shields the men, articulates her faith and bargains clearly for her family. Complete the scene by honouring her leadership without turning a violent setting into adventure entertainment.

Questions to explore

  1. What decisions in the chapter belong to Rahab?
  2. How does she connect faith with protection for her household?
  3. Where might courage require planning and clear negotiation rather than impulsive action?

Prayer prompt

God who sees people living inside dangerous systems, honour courageous truth and protect those at risk. Give us wisdom to plan carefully, speak clearly and use what we know for the safety of others. Amen.

Next step

Complete the scarlet cord and add one household symbol. Then write a simple safety plan for a challenging situation with the help of a trustworthy person.

Use it your way

Ideas for different settings

Personal reflection

Read the passage twice, complete only the lines that help you pay attention, and finish with the prayer prompt.

Families

Let each person respond differently. Compare observations rather than artwork, and make explaining the drawing optional.
