Episode notes
Upstream Actions Precede Downstream Evidence
- God often acts 'upstream' where we cannot see immediate effects from our position downstream.
- Maintain faith that God has already set answers in motion even when circumstances appear unchanged.
Jordan Miracle Happened 20 Miles Upstream
- Joel recounts Joshua and the priests entering the Jordan where the water first piled up 20 miles upstream at Adam.
- The miracle had occurred upstream even though the people at the river initially saw no change.
Stay In Faith Until Results Reach You
- Stay standing in faith and do not withdraw when you don't see immediate results.
- Keep praising, declaring promises, and expect the answer even without visible evidence.
