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?

COT:
Regret.
The feeling associated with doing wrong or missing an opportunity. Sometimes causing the.need for repentance.

II Corinthians 7:9-10 NKJV
[9] Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner, that you might suffer loss from us in nothing. [10] For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

Ask for forgiveness when you’rewrong. Apologize. Don’t live with regret. Forgive others. Don’t miss opportunities. Put Christ firat, and let him be your guide.

COT:
Chadd Wright, 3of7 Podcast, said:
“I hiked the Grand Canyon today. If you have t done it yet, you should…..as soon as possible. I have been many places and have never seen anything like it in terms of landscape. I told my wife, during our hike, ‘I can’t believe we waited this long to do this.’ It’s inexcusable. It made me think of how much we leave on the table in life. How often we pass on the opportunity to create amazing memories….because we’re busy doing things that don’t really matter. Soon enough, it’ll be too late.

Don’t leave life on the table. Bring Glory to God in everything we do. Make memories, because things fail and pass away, but memories last a lifetime. And especially, don’t wait, life is but a vapor, and the days are long but the years are short.

Relax in the Lord
Psalm 23 talks about a good shepherd with his flock. The bible often refers to God’s people as sheep. Sheep are dumb and they need alot of looking after. We need a good shepherd, and thankfully one is available. We can trust and relax in Him.
