Day 19: Courage Duplicated: Crossing the Jordan

Welcome: God never changes! What a beautiful reminder and promise of His goodness and stability! Today we see God duplicate a special miracle for Israel, solidifying His mission for them.

Background: The spies have returned from scouting Jericho and the Lord has certified His plan and protection. Only one barrier stands in the way — the swollen, flooded Jordan River.

Read: Joshua 3:1-17

Highlight: “The Lord said to Joshua, ‘Today I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.’”

You? God is in the business of the impossible, but maybe you’re wondering if He will do it for you. If He parted the Red Sea for Moses and the Jordan River for Joshua, then He can make the impossible happen in your life. What ways is God looking to remind you of His love and faithfulness from years past?

Pray: God, nothing is impossible for you. You graciously and powerfully led Israel into the Promised Land and I know you will lead me, too. Thank you for confirming your will in my life even in the same ways you have moved in the past.
