As genuine Christians, we strongly desire to honor God by doing His will and walking in obedience to His word! But, obeying God is not always easy! We can be certain that we are following God's directions, but we can and most likely will come upon a Jordan. So often when we are faced with challenges in obeying the will of God, we give up too easy! Although Israel faced these challenges, they still moved forward in obedience. We too must boldly move forward in obedience to the will of God!
