COT:
Faith to Cross The Jordan – Joshua Chapter 3

Israel was crossing into the promised land. God tested Israel’s faith. The Jordan was in flood stage. One could easily drown trying to Cross. God told Israel that he would stop the river so that they could cross on dry ground. There was a test of their faith though. They had to take a step of faith into the flooding waters before God would stop the river. They took those first steps and God was faithful. Where do we need to take a step of faith?
