You have not passed here!
Joshua 2:2-4 (NKJV)
2 So it was, after three days, that the officers went through the camp;
3 and they command the people, saying, "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it.
4 "Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure. Do not come near it, that you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way before."
++++++++++++++++++
In this passage, the people are getting instructions about crossing the Jordan River and going into the Promised Land.
The ark of the covenant was the symbolic presence of God. They were to keep their focus on it, in order to know the way.
Today, the Bible is the way God has chosen to lead us. As we enter into a New Year, we must keep our eyes on our guide.
We are different today from last year. We have not passed this way before! So we must keep our eyes on our guide. Read the Bible daily!
There are many guides to reading through the Bible in a year. Choose one and read!
