Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know God led his chosen people through the Red Sea and the River Jordan. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A sign reads “Jordan River” at the entrnace to Bethany-Beyond-the-Jordan, a popular tourist site where people can visit the Jordanian side of the Jordan River.
When faced with the everyday challenges, how often do most people think of how mighty God is. If he can part the Red Sea and make the Jordan River passable, we should never underestimate what he is able to do.
Psalm 66:5-7 (ESV) beckons one to recall God’s power and to rejoice.
“Come and see what God has done:
he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.
He turned the sea into dry land;
they passed through the river on foot.
There did we rejoice in him,
who rules by his might forever,
whose eyes keep watch on the nations—
let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah ”
Imagine what it would have been like to be with those who walked through the Red Sea or the Jordan River. How awesome are God’s deeds. Indeed!
