“that all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the LORD your God for ever.”
Joshua 4:24 KJV
Joshua told the children of Israel, “The LORD God has done these miracles so that all the earth will be in awe of the mighty power of Yahweh and that you might always obey Yahweh your God!” The two miracles - the parting of the Red Sea and the miracle crossing of the Jordan - carry a message for the entire world to learn. As believers in our heavenly Joshua, our Lord Yeshua, we can learn from the symbolism of these miracles. The Red Sea parting shows us deep lessons of our salvation from sin, as does the Jordan crossing. We were co-buried with Christ in baptism into His death (Jordan), and now we are co-raised with Him on the “dry ground” of resurrection territory. We were buried with Him in baptism, in which we also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. Miracles convince the world of the Lordship of Jesus. We build these memorials for the next generations to believe in Christ. Let’s walk in the miraculous because we are in Christ and the Holy Spirit releases miracles through us. Hallelujah!
