Consecration

Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over. After three days the officers went throughout the camp, giving orders to the people: "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the Levitical priests carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before. But keep a distance of about two thousand cubits between you and the ark; do not go near it." Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you." Joshua said to the priests, "Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people." So they took it up and went ahead of them. And the LORD said to Joshua, "Today I will begin to exalt you in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses.

Joshua 3:1-7

Observation

  • Fully devoted Christ followers see amazing things.
  • Don't see obstacles as road blocks, but see them as stepping stones.
  • Get ready for God to lead you into new territory and new opportunities.

Prayer
Father, I know you want me to take another step forward in this season of my life.
I want to honor you and make a difference. I will go forward and not backward.
Today, I will stand on your promises and live out your purposes for my life.
I will remember that you have promised to walk with me.
I will not be terrified or discouraged.
I will be confident and encouraged.
In Jesus' name, amen!
