Teaching Priests step into the river with the ark

When we step out in faith and obey, God makes a way where there seems to be no way - nothing can stop His plans.

  • The priests had to step into the rushing water BEFORE God stopped it. Why does obeying God sometimes mean stepping out before we see how it'll work?
  • God made a dry path through an impossible river. What "impossible" things can God help us through?
  • God did the same miracle for the children that He did for their parents. How does that show God never changes?
