Deuteronomy 22:1-23:8; Joel 3:1-21; Luke 12:22-40
Take for yourselves twelve stones from here, out of the midst of the Jordan. Joshua 4:3 NKJV
The Lord did not say, take stones from where you came through, or from where I told you to walk, but from here, where He was! After Egypt’s bondage, He drew Israel into the wilderness and guided them through it. Then He restrained Jordan’s turbulent rush, making firm the riverbed path for them. He remained in the river with them until all His people crossed over into the promised land with Him. Our journey from sin’s bondage is accompanied by the same unchangeable Lord who says, “I will be with you and will be a very present help in trouble”. —David J. Reed
No, never alone, no, never alone;
He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone. —Anonymous
