Miracle at the Jordan River

This weekend we will be continuing our journey with the Israelites to the Promised Land and we'll hear about an amazing miracle that God performed along the way! As the Israelites were traveling towards Jericho, they came to the Jordan River. When they got there, God said He was going to do an incredible miracle so that everyone would know that He was helping the Israelites. So God told the Israelites to step out into the water and when they did, the water stopped flowing and the people crossed the river on dry ground! After everyone had crossed the river, God told them to send some men back to the middle of the river to pick up twelve stones. Once the men had carried the stones out of the river, they made a pile with them. The pile of stones was supposed to remind everyone of the miracle that God had performed at the Jordan River!
