Text: Joshua 3:8(KJV)
And thou shalt command the
priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying. When ye are come to the
brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.
Friends, God will
always do wonders through His covenant to his people. And it can only come by
obedience to his instruction and this requires us to embrace covenant command. Hence,
we must learn to be alert to hear and follow his leading as we follow
absolutely in all situations. From the scripture above, he gave a command to
the priest that he should bear the Ark of the Covenant. And the obedience to
that singular instruction is what brought about the people passing over Jordan
and the priest bearing the ark for the people. So, what is your turning point
instruction today? Do you know, as we embrace the covenant command today, there
will be a shift and a wonder testimony as he sets us on high. Deut. 28:1 And it shall come to
pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe
and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set
thee on high above all nations of the earth. So, we must learn to walk in alignment with
God’s will because his covenant lives us with a responsibility to do our part
of the agreement. It is not a promise and it is not burdensome. So, do your
part.
Amazingly,
the instruction was for the priest to deep his feet in the brim of the water. This
reminds us that every move of God came by very simple instruction of which we
must be ready to follow. We can see the water stood and rose up a heap very
high from the city. Hence, the outcome that the salt sea failed and the priest
that bare the ark of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan
and the children of Isreal passed over. Joshua 3:5 And Joshua
said unto the people. Sanctify yourselves; for tomorrow the Lord will do
wonders among you. I pray the Lord will make us to be clean and spotless
as to cross over as His vessels in Jesus name.
PRAYER POINT:
1. Father, I
pray that the Lord will magnify His name in our lives even as we obey his
command, He will continue to be with us in Jesus name.
Action Quote: Remember, obedience
unlocks God’s promises to man.
