Crossing the Jordan

Our Love for God

Love Songs That Glorify God

Praising God's Mighty Works

Joshua 4:19-24 The Message

19-22 The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month. They set up camp at The Gilgal (The Circle) to the east of Jericho. Joshua erected a monument at The Gilgal, using the twelve stones that they had taken from the Jordan. And then he told the People of Israel, “In the days to come, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What are these stones doing here?’ tell your children this: ‘Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry ground.’
23-24 “Yes, God, your God, dried up the Jordan’swaters for you until you had crossed, just as God, your God, did at the Red Sea, which had dried up before us until we had crossed. This was so that everybody on earth would recognize how strong God’s rescuing hand is and so that you would hold God in solemn reverence always.”

For Reflection

God has always prepared the pathways to hope and reconciliation.  God will also prepare the way for our destiny as children of God.  

Pray

Pray so that the land you cross is firm and dry.  Pray so that you have confidence in God's preparation for your role in Creation.
