What's
your Jordan...? The Jordan River had to be crossed to enjoy &
experience the Promise Land. It had been 40 years...God gave specific
instructions for the crossing. Has God given you specific instructions
to cross your Jordan? You know in your heart it's what you're suppose to
do. You reason-it's not a good time ...the water level is at its
highest with a dangerous current & now you're doubting
if you even heard God correctly. You're certain all the preparations
have led to now; it's harvest season...the time to reap what you've
sown. You look across the Jordan & see where God wants you to be-He
said it's yours...you must posses it. All your fears are accurate; you
can't do this, but God can-He's got the able; He needs available. God
doesn't amuse Himself by wringing you out to see how tough you are; He
wrings the "I" out of you to make room for Him...to bring His plans to
fruition through you. The only way you're are going to cross your Jordan
is through His strength. Stop wasting time on, if you can or can't-you
can't, but God will...if you will let Him. But you won't know He
will...until you step in the Jordan. When you step in, the waters will
roll back & the ground will be dry; God told the Israelites to keep a
distance from the ark of the covenant, so they could see the way to
go...He knew they had not not passed this way before. God's tenderness
is so evident; He knows the things He asks of us are impossible & He
knows we want to please Him-that we struggle with fear, but if we will
trust Him...He will go before us & make a way. No one can convince
you to trust God-the more bold steps you take...the more trust you gain
& the more your relationship deepens. I pray you will cross your
Jordan & fulfill the plans God has for you. Your life will be so
full & complete; actually ridiculously content, if you will trust
God to lead you...will you? (Gal 6:9, Josh 3:4, Jer 29:11, Pr 3:5-6)
