The crash of Concorde
The cause of the crash According to the official investigation conducted by the French accident investigation bureau (BEA), the crash was caused by a titanium strip that fell from a Continental Airlines DC-10 that had taken off minutes earlier. This metal fragment punctured a tyre on the Concorde's left main wheel bogie during takeoff. The tyre exploded, and a piece of rubber hit the fuel tank. This impact caused a major fuel leak from the tank, which then ignited due to severed, sparking electrical wiring. The crew shut down engine number 2 in response to a fire warning, and with engine number 1 surging and producing little power, the aircraft was unable to gain height or speed. The aircraft entered a rapid pitch-up then a violent descent, rolling left and crashing tail-low into the Hotelissimo Hotel in Gonesse.[

第七日清早,黎明的時候,他們起來,照樣繞城七次;惟獨這日把城繞了七次。 Jos 6:16 到了第七次,祭司吹角的時候,約書亞吩咐百姓說:「呼喊吧,因為耶和華已經把城交給你們了! Jos 6:17 這城和其中所有的都要在耶和華面前毀滅;只有妓女喇合與他家中所有的可以存活,因為他隱藏了我們所打發的使者。 Jos 6:18 至於你們,務要謹慎,不可取那當滅的物,恐怕你們取了那當滅的物就連累以色列的全營,使全營受咒詛。 Jos 6:19 惟有金子、銀子,和銅鐵的器皿都要歸耶和華為聖,必入耶和華的庫中。」 Jos 6:20 於是百姓呼喊,祭司也吹角。百姓聽見角聲,便大聲呼喊,城牆就塌陷,百姓便上去進城,各人往前直上,將城奪取;

The Jericho people were Huge. The task may be incredibly hard, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be done. From God’s perspective, there is no big or small task.
The men of Ai were but few, and yet the people who had conquered the mighty Jericho “fled before the men of Ai”. It was not the strength of their enemy, neither had God failed them. It was a hidden evil that conquered them. , And this little hidden thing made the whole army helpless before their enemies
The teaching here is simply this: That anything allowed in the heart which is contrary to the will of God, let it seem ever so insignificant, or be ever so deeply hidden, will cause us to fall before our enemies. We may have hidden the evil in the most remote corner of our hearts, and may have covered it over from our sight, we may steadily ignore it.
Even you have won the big war before but you can be defeated during an insignificant small war If you don’t care your little bad habits or sin, you will fall completely. If you refuse to change, or not aware of it. you will be failing again and again for the rest of your life. Example: Back to the future.
