Today’s Reading: Joshua 3; Joshua 4; Joshua 5; Joshua 6; 1 Corinthians 4
Scripture: Joshua 3
3 ..."When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, who are Levites, carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. 4 Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before..."
Observation: As the Israelites are preparing to enter the land, they are given instructions to follow the ark of the covenant.
Application: "You have never been this way before." This is the story of our lives. Every day is an unexplored experience that we walk through, never really knowing what will happen. And, like the Israelites, we have periods that are truly outside of our experience. And in all these, we need to stay close to the presence of the Lord, which the ark represents. Keep God in sight, "Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before."
Prayer: Thank you, Father, for your willingness to guide us. I want to follow your presence and never stray from the places that you lead. Keep watch over me and keep reminding me to keep my eyes on you.
This I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
