Day 19: Joshua 2 & 3

Joshua 2

Rahab was not an Israelite. She didn't follow God. Yet she believed the stories she heard about the Israelites and she feared God and protected His people.

If you didn't know God, do you think you'd be able to do what Rahab did?

Joshua 3

The Israelites need to cross the Jordan River. And it's flooded.

I went to the Jordan River once. It's not a small stream.

I would be TERRIFIED to step into a rushing river with a huge, heavy ark on my shoulders. But the priests did it! And God stopped the waters so that they could cross.

The Israelites had to trust God in many tangible ways. Sometimes the necessity for us to trust God isn't so tangible. It's not like we have a real, rushing river to cross. But maybe we have other obstacles in our way.

What can you trust God with today?
