wilderness wanderings

Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it. Helen Keller »

Jos

3:5-8
5 And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you. 6 And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.
7 And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee. 8 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.

At times God supplies his will in a tangible way.  When this happens we see n believe. Other times he requires faith wo seeing. These two forms of revelation cycle n recycle themselves thru out our spiritual walk
This part of gods will is like the priests at Jordan river.
God commanded them to bear the ark n step into the swollen river. Then they had to stand there. That’s faith like Peter walking on the water n then Jesus taking him back to the boat. Sometimes the will of God comes like it did at the red sea. They stood still n saw the deliverance of God. They did not have to excercise walking faith until they saw the dry land. But other times u gotta get out of the boat n u gotta step into the water b4 he shows u the way. Thats faith

excercised

b4 u see the deliverance. That requires faith based on Gods past performance, n his character. Joseph

Stoll

says when u can’t see his hand u can trust his character. Go n see n believe. Go n step into the swollen river n stand. God leads his children along. The steps of good people r ordered by the lord. Delight urself in him n he will direct ur paths. You will hear his voice saying this is the way. Walk Ye in it. Isaiah, proverbs, psalms
