So the people left the place where they had camped, and they followed the priests who carried the Ark of the Agreement across the Jordan River. During harvest the Jordan overflows its banks. When the priests carrying the Ark came to the edge of the river and stepped into the water, the water upstream stopped flowing. It stood up in a heap a great distance away at Adam, a town near Zarethan. The water flowing down to the Sea of Arabah (the Dead Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed the river near Jericho. The priests carried the Ark of the Agreement with the LORD to the middle of the river and stood there on dry ground. They waited there while all the people of Israel walked across the Jordan River on dry land.

Faith is the currency of God’s Kingdom, and it’s an essential ingredient in our prayers. Yet many believers pray without actually believing that their prayers are being answered and then wonder what went wrong. When we recognize the desires God has given us, trust his promises, and persevere in faith, we grow deeper in our prayers, stronger in our hope, and more confident in his responses.
