Israel Crossing the Jordan - The Twelve Stones (Joshua 3-4)

This teaching is about Israel crossing the Jordan river and setting up twelve memorial stones as recorded in Joshua 3-4. This event marks the first manifestation of God's presence with Israel's new leader, Joshua, who had been appointed to assume leadership of Israel after the death of Moses.

Israel crossing the Jordan was the first step for them to take possession of the promised land. It is fitting, then, the Lord manifested his miraculous power in order for Israel to cross the Jordan. To mark this important event, the Lord instructed Joshua to set up twelve stones. These twelve stones would serve as a reminder to future generations of Israelites of the miraculous manner in which Israel crossed the Jordan.

The twelve stones themselves were important. The fact that these twelve stones were taken from the middle of the Jordan gives them an added significance. In this teaching I explain what that added significance is. I also explain how you and I can apply the principles of this passage to our lives today.
