Joshua 3

Intro

what does it mean to be holy?

Crossing the Jordan

a sign that God is with Joshua

a sign that God will keep his promises

a sign of the end of an era and a generation

entering into something new

Kings and Angels

they cross over on dry ground and camp outside Jericho

the whole world can see that the Hebrew people have overcome one of the greater natural boundaries in a single day

what would normally take a ton of time and assets

from Jericho to the Med, the leaders have heard the stories and can see the writing on the wall

Joshua has an interesting meeting on Holy ground with a character that is hard to pin down

Application

all these rituals and formalities seem a bit silly to us

Isreal sets its self apart from the rest of the world as they enter the promised land

Joshua does away with what is unclean on him in the presence of either God himself or one who is in the presence of God

you and I are meant to be people who live a life as though the savior were living through us

but do you always separate yourself from things that God would ask you to if you were to be walking toward him?
