One of the greatest tests of Joshua’s faith was the crossing of the Jordan. After forty years of wandering in the wilderness, Israel arrived at the Jordan when it was flooded. Six months earlier, in the dry season, the crossing would have been much simpler, but now it was obvious they needed divine help. As soon as the feet of the priests who were carrying the ark touched the river’s edge, the waters rolled back, allowing the whole of Israel to cross over into Canaan on dry land.
