Text:  Joshua 4:1-5:12

 

I.    AN ARK OF CONNECTION                        
 

The ark symbolized (God’s presence) among the people. Even more. With this incident at the Jordan, they were saying (God Himself went before them).

What did the ark symbolize?

1.      God’s (sovereignty, power, or rule)

2.      God’s (holiness)

3.      God’s (justice)

4.      God’s (unchanging character).

 

II.   STONES OF REMEMBRANCE                          
 

Three reasons for the memorial:

1)      Because road ahead would be (hard) and sometimes (discouraging).

2)      Children often forget the (faith and instruction) of parents.

3)      Testimony to the (existence and nature) of the one True God.

 

III.  AN ACT OF CONSECRATION
 

Why put the people through this? (Obedience)

Two acts of consecration:

1.      (Circumcision)

2.      (Passover)
