When God chooses to move!

“And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from upstream, and they shall stand as a heap.” Joshua 3:13

At times life can seem listless and without purpose. It is like God wants you to exist in the routines of an unexciting life and all seems monotonous.

God is in charge of your life and He orchestrates the seasons of change. The Israelites wandered in the desert for forty years. Then at the perfect timing of God, the Israelites crossed the Jordan River into their new homeland.

This did not happen until the soles of the feet of the priests who were carrying the ark of the covenant touched the waters of the Jordan River. Then almighty God caused the waters to stand up in a heap and the Israelites safely crossed over the river.

You cannot effect change in your life. God must go ahead of you and open your pathway. You and I have to wait on God for His timing and power to move into a new season. Your feet have to touch the water as our exalted and most high God goes before you.

God does not perform miracles just for your sake. He wants all those around you to know that the hand of the Lord is mighty and that you will fear the Lord your God forever.

Thought for the day:

“Your life is like the ebb and flow of a river stream. I am in control of your destiny and My plans for you are perfect. If you try to cross the Jordan River before My perfect timing you will fail. Wait on Me and I will show you My greatness and power and all those around you will praise Me. There is no one like Me.”
