Faith Steps

The Highest is a God of miracles, but the impossible sometimes tests our faith. God told Joshua He would make way for passage across the Jordan River, but it wouldn’t be an ordinary trek: “The priests will carry the Ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth. As soon as their feet touch the water, the flow of water will be cut off upstream, and the river will stand up like a wall” (Joshua 3:13 NLT). The priests bearing the Ark of the Lord had to trust God to roll the water back, hold it in place, leaving a dry riverbed to walk across. Then their feet had to step into the water. When they did, God kept His word.

We serve the same God today; faith and obedience are still the keys to victory. When He says, “Take a step, He will keep you from drowning or falling; or says, “Your faith has made you whole,” believe He healed you. When you ask God to forgive your sins and invite Jesus into your life, He saves you—forever. Unafraid you can trust Him—He will carry you safely over or through every challenge you face.
