"Preach The Word"





GOING FORWARD


TEXT: Joshua 3:1-17
TEXT: (Joshua 3:3) "And they commanded the people, saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then ye shall remove from your place, and go after it."

INTRODUCTION: There is a time to stand still (Isaiah 40:31). There is a time to advance (Matthew 28:19, 20) (Hebrews 6:1). In this chapter God commanded some of the people to stand still and others to go forward (Joshua 3:17). Let us look at some of the requisites and purposes for going forward with the Lord.


I. GOING FORWARD OVER A NEW PATH (Joshua 3:1-4)

    1. With their eyes on the ark of the covenant.

    2. With obedience to the command of God.

    3. With new experiences.


II. GOING FORWARD WITH A CLEANSED LIFE (Joshua 3:5)

    1. Sanctification of Soul.

    2. Sanctification of Body.

    3. Sanctification of Spirit.


III. GOING FORWARD THROUGH SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE
       CIRCUMSTANCES (Joshua 3:6-11)

    1. The presence of the Lord.

    2. The promise of the Lord.

    3. The provision of the Lord.


IV. GOING FORWARD TO REVEAL THE COMPASSION AND
POWER OF THE LORD (Joshua 3:12-17)

    1. A love for Israel is revealed.

    2. A power of the laws of nature is revealed.

  • CONCLUSION: When we go forward, it must be in obedience to the command and in the power of God.
