In these Last Days, the Father has spoken to us by HIS SON, but that does not mean all that He has spoken before has now been unsaid or is of no effect.
Hebrews 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; source
GOD is so smart! That’s an understatement but you get my point.
Joshua 3
14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carried the ark of the covenant ahead of them.
15 Now the Jordan overflows its banks throughout the harvest season. But as soon as the priests carrying the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge,
16 the flowing water stood still. It backed up as far upstream as Adam, a city in the area of Zarethan, while the water flowing toward the Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.
17 The priests carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan, while all Israel crossed over the dry ground, until the entire nation had crossed the Jordan. source
At the time, the Jordan
was overflowing its banks – the Jordan was as deep as it gets, but something happened. The water was completely cut off as far upstream as Adam — wherever that is.
GOD was acting on behalf of His People and other people were going to hear about it. Why?
Two reasons I think.
One, the Hebrews had to get across the river and two, GOD wanted people to know HIM.
HE still does.
In His mercy and His love, He was reaching out to the non-Hebrew. HE still does.
We don’t see many Jordan Rivers piling up water as far upstream as Adam these days, do we?
And if our DESIRE is to see the SIGN, we likely never will, BUT if we DESIRE GOD, we cannot now imagine what we will see.
GOD still wants People to know HIM.
In these Last Days, do we engineer our own way of damning up the Jordans in our lives?
How’s that working out for us and the revealing of GOD to others?
Until Next Time, Holy hugs, Kathie
