Dr. Scott Hanberry
In Scripture, the Jordan River’s presence on Israel’s eastern edge stood as an enduring metaphor of transitions - especially entering into the promises of God! These transitions point directly to your life as well. For believers in the twenty-first century, “crossing Jordan” is a movement from lower level of Christian living that involves us trusting God through spiritual obstacles. It describes our entrance to the spiritual warfare of Ephesians, a rejection of a life lived by the flesh and human effort, and the beginning of a life centered in faith and obedience.
Today, I want you (individually) and us (collectively) to move to the right side of God’s promises!
