He is the SAME..then..now..tomorrow.

Joshua 4: 23-24

"For the Lord your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over. The Lord your God did to the Jordan just what He had done to the Red Sea when He dried it up before us until we had crossed over. He did this so that all the peoples of the earth might know that the hand of the Lord IS POWERFUL and so that you might always fear the Lord your God."

People..it doesn't say that His hand was powerful..it say that it IS powerful! The thing that always rocks me about these two accounts apart from the obvious..that He PARTED the sea..but the fact that they walked accross on dry land. It could have been mushy and it still would have been just as cool and breathtaking. What that communicates to me is that the Lord doesn't do anything halfway..or operate inside of accidentals..which He has gone to extremes to show me..but I will that save for another post:)

Hebrews 13:7-8
"Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.  Jesus Christ IS the SAME yesterday and today and forever."
