Adam and Eve knew it for as long as they knew God. They experienced it under tragic circumstances, yet on that day when they needed it most, they experienced it in a powerful and comforting way. The day that they fell into sin, and brought the entirety of the human race down with them, God came to them with a promise - a promise of forgiveness and hope and life.And that promise was repeated generation after generation to God's Old Testament people, through Noah and Abraham, through Jacob and Joseph and Moses. That promise sustained them throughout their history, through their time in Egypt and in the wilderness and right into the place that God had long before promised would be the homeland for his people. That's where our summer podcast series begins. This summer on Most Certainly True Podcast, we will be walking through about 400 years of Old Testament history. Beginning with Joshua and commencing at the end of First Samuel - all under the theme The God of the Promise. We'll see and be encouraged through this devotional walk that God is faithful to all his promises especially as we see him fulfill those promises in big ways to his chosen people. We'll see God make good on his promises all along the way, using these sub-themes: Joshua - LandJudges - DeliveranceRuth - Redemption1 Samuel - KingdomWe hope that you can join us in this devotional walk through these Old Testament books. We'll read through them, chapter by chapter, and post an episode on each chapter that we read. We hope that you join us so that you can see just what the Israelites of old saw - that God is The God of the Promise. If you have any questions about this series or our Most Certainly True Podcast, please reach out to Pastor Hackmann at bhackmann@gracedowntown.org.

“Into the Water”Joshua 3:1-171 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim and went to the Jordan, where they camped before crossing over. 2 After three days the officers went throughout the camp, 3 giving orders to the people: “When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the Levitical priests 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. But keep a distance of about two thousand cubits[a] between you and the ark; do not go near it.”5 Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.”6 Joshua said to the priests, “Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people.” So they took it up and went ahead of them.7 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I will begin to exalt you in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses. 8 Tell the priests who carry the ark of the covenant: ‘When you reach the edge of the Jordan's waters, go and stand in the river.'”9 Joshua said to the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. 10 This is how you will know that the living God is among you and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites. 11 See, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth will go into the Jordan ahead of you. 12 Now then, choose twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe. 13 And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the Lord—the Lord of all the earth—set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream will be cut off and stand up in a heap.”14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant went ahead of them. 15 Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water's edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan, while the water flowing down to the Sea of the Arabah (that is, the Dead Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho. 17 The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.CONNECT WITH USIf you have any questions or would like to get to know us further, head over to https://www.triumphlbc.org/connect and fill out our online connection card.ABOUT TRIUMPHTriumph wants to see the life and message of Jesus transform your heart, home, and city.

The sermon opens with a sobering observation about congregational readiness. God provides godly leadership when His people genuinely desire to follow His Word. Joshua's example is compelling — he rose early, consecrated the people, and delegated wisely. The call to consecration is pressed home as more than ritual: it is a heart-preparation for worship, an intentional posture of readiness before the God who is about to act. God's theological preparation of Israel centers on the reassurance of His presence. The statement, "Just as I have been with Moses, I will be with you" (v. 5), carries enormous weight for a people still grieving their great leader. Joshua steps into a mediatorial role that ultimately foreshadows the Lord Jesus Christ, the one perfect Mediator between God and man. The miracle itself — the waters of the Jordan standing in a heap as the priests' feet touched the flood-stage river — is treated not as a curiosity but as a covenant declaration. God is the Lord of all the earth, and creation obeys Him. The naturalistic explanations are set aside: this was an instantaneous, unmistakable act of divine power, analogous to the parting of the Red Sea, intended to prepare the minds of God's people for every battle ahead. The sermon closes with three durable truths: God is omnipresent and sovereign over every trial; He never leaves His people without His Word; and true assurance is found not in our own ability but in obeying who God is. As the sermon memorably states, "Yahweh delights to show His might when we are helpless."
Who would have thought that two of my favorite scriptures in two different places in the book of Joshua would go so well together with a great little lesson?
Before we see the miracles and answers to our prayers, the Lord often requires is to “get our feet wet” with a little leap of faith.If you'd like to view the video that goes with the podcast, click here!

“The greatest strategy of the enemy is convincing us he's not there. But the Bible makes it clear—we have a real enemy with real schemes. In this week's message from Joshua, we unpack how spiritual battles are often hidden beneath what we see. The good news? Truth exposes every lie, and in Christ, we have everything we need to overcome.”
In this teaching from Joshua 3, we explore one of the most pivotal moments in Israel's history — the crossing of the Jordan River and the transition into the promises of God. This passage reveals powerful themes about divine leadership, covenant faithfulness, and the necessity of following God's presence rather than human strategy. Why did the Ark go before the people? Why were they commanded to keep their distance? And what does the Jordan represent as a prophetic threshold for God's people? We also examine the deeper symbolism of the waters “standing in one heap,” the priestly role in stepping into uncertainty, and how this event connects to New Testament themes of faith, obedience, and spiritual transition. This message challenges listeners to consider what it means to move forward when God calls — even before the path is fully visible. To learn more about our congregation, upcoming teachings, or to listen to additional messages, visit: https://www.dothanmessianicfellowship.com Join us as we study Scripture in its Hebraic context and seek to faithfully follow the God of Israel in our generation.
Sometimes the greatest act of faith is stepping forward before the water moves.In Joshua 3–4, the priests step into the Jordan before it parts, and God makes a way for an entire nation. But God didn't want the moment to be forgotten—He told them to gather stones from the river and build a memorial so they would always remember what He had done.When we remember God's faithfulness in the past, it strengthens our faith for whatever lies ahead.

You don't have to stumble your way through this new season - God is there to guide you. Let's pray...
Today in our study of Joshua 3, we'll look at how the Children of Israel literally stepped out in faith and watched God do a wonderful miracle of necessity and confirmation. We'll glean several principles for faith and obedience. Join us in another faith-strengthening study in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Where are the Children of Israel in verse 1? Practically speaking, what kinds of things do you think were necessary to move two million people across the Jordan River into the Promised Land? What does verse 15 tell us about the banks of the river? Was this a good time to cross? 2. The podcast also explained a common challenge when studying the Bible timeline. What was the term used (in the podcast) to describe a perspective that focuses on event priority versus event sequence? How is that different from the linear perspective that we have today? 3. In verse 5, Joshua tells the people to consecrate themselves to the Lord. From what we've talked about in our previous studies (such as Exodus 29 and Leviticus 1), what did consecration entail? Why was this important before the people entered the Promised Land? How might we apply this principle to our own life and consecrate ourselves to the Lord prior to important events in life? 4. Why do you think the priests were to bring the ark before the people, in verse 6? What did this show the people? 5. What were the priests to do with the ark in verse 8? Was this a normal technique for fording a river ahead of millions of people? What would it indicate about the faith and obedience of the priests and the people? When the priests stepped out in faith, what happened to the water in verse 16? 6. This miracle demonstrated several key truths to the people. What did it demonstrate about the Lord's inauguration of Joshua in verse 7? What did it demonstrate about God's promises to go before them and cleanse the land in verse 10? What would it have communicated to the people who were living in the land? 7. The podcast mentioned that crossing the Jordan River was not like crossing the Mighty Mississippi River. Roughly, how wide and deep was the Jordan River? What does this show us about the reason for miracles and God's apparent lack of concern for giving increasingly impressive and dramatic miracles? 8. In Joshua 4:5, why did the Lord have the people make a memorial? In Joshua 4:24, who was this memorial for? Why do we need these kinds of memorials? How might we apply this principle to our own lives in times where we've seen the clear hand of the Lord? 9. When you reflect on Joshua 3, what are some lessons you've learned regarding what it means to trust God, believe His word and take steps in light of it? What relationship is there between taking steps of faith and seeing the Lord's work in our lives? Is there some place in your life where you need to take a step of faith?

If I Had To Do It All Over Again (Joshua 3:1-4) Dr. Jeff LaBorg
Charge | Blessed To Be A Blessing | Pastor Michael Kennedy
Before God moves around us, He often works within us.In Joshua 3, Israel stands at the edge of promise. The wilderness is behind them. The Promised Land is in front of them. The Jordan River is at flood stage. And before God explains the miracle, He gives one command:“Consecrate yourselves.”In this sermon, Pastor walks through Joshua 3:1–17 and reveals a timeless Kingdom pattern:
God goes before His people and calls them to trust Him. From Joshua 3, this message explores obedience, God's presence, and how Jesus makes a way forward when the next step feels uncertain.

Joshua 3 | January 18, 2026 | Pastor Todd SmithThe Israelites faced an impossible obstacle: the raging Jordan River at flood stage. Yet, in Joshua 3, God commanded them to cross, not by their strength, but by following His presence. This ancient story reveals a timeless truth about navigating life's daunting challenges. Discover how focusing on the Lord, sanctifying your life, and embracing moments of stillness can empower you to live a life of trust and obedience, even when you stand at the brink.

The apostle Paul's struggle and agony for believers he's never met reminds us of the depth of Christian love and the importance of spiritual encouragement. We're called to be 'knit together in love,' forming a tight-knit community that stands firm against false teachings and plausible arguments that threaten to lead us astray. The message emphasizes that all wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ, urging us to seek Him above all else. This passage invites us to reflect on our own convictions about Jesus and how firmly we're willing to stand for truth in a world full of deceptive ideologies. Are we ready to live for Christ, not just in moments of crisis, but in our everyday lives? This teaching challenges us to step into the arena of faith with courage, conviction, and clarity, reminding us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces that seek to undermine our faith.To find out more about Crossroads Community Church or to connect with us, visit the following links:→ lifeatcrossroads.org→ facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsTo give online: lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonline.CCLI License: 2915685CCS WorshipCast License: 9466GRANT OF LICENSE.
