#soap # Joshua 2 ## Title: The Lord Prepares The Way ## Scripture: (Joshua 2:24) They told Joshua, “Surely the Lord is handing over all the land to us! All who live in the land are cringing before us!” (NET) ## Observation: The Lord is always doing things that we know nothing about. On Christmas morning, the girls will wake up and come downstairs. They see the gifts and are excited. Not once do they think about the months of planning that went into getting them prepared. All they know is they are here now. God does this for us so much. While the nation of Israel was in the wilderness, while they were transferring leadership to Joshua, and while they were crossing the Jordan, God was already providing the next step. If we take care of our business, God will take care of His. ## Application: Trust the Lord to make a bridge before we get to the water. If not, He’ll make a way through the sea. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for helping us always trust in You, not just stare at the circumstances.
