[Joshua said,] "For the LORD
your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over. The LORD
your God did to the Jordan what he had done to the Red Sea when he dried it up
before us until we had crossed over. He did this so that all the peoples of the
earth might know that the hand of the LORD is powerful and so that you might
always fear the LORD your God."
—Joshua 4:23-24
Thoughts on Today's Verse...

be lost without it. God demonstrates his love to us because he wants to show
his power to the peoples of the world. God demonstrates his love for us because
he wants us to know his awesome might to save. God demonstrates his love for us

My Prayer...
Holy and Almighty God, I praise you
for your majesty and might. I praise you for your love and your grace. I praise
you with my heart full of thanks. I praise you with my head bowed low in
reverence, to honor and glorify you, the only true and living God. May honor
and glory and praise be yours in my heart and in my life as long as I live on
this earth. In Jesus' name. Amen.
