Joshua 3:1-2 Three Days!

 1Then Joshua rose early in the morning; and they set out from [a]Acacia Grove and came to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they crossed over. 2So it was, after three days, that the officers went through the camp;

Jos 1:11 NKJV - 11 "Pass through the camp and command the people, saying, 'Prepare provisions for yourselves, for within three days you will cross over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God is giving you to possess.' "

Three days!

Boy this number of days sounds familiar! 🤔

Matthew 12:40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

My great aunt had a saying: company is like fish, after three days they both begin to stink!

If we wait on the Lord for three days or for company to leave what is that in the realm of things? 

If your child is missing, three days can be a long time!

Luke 2:26 Finally, after three days they found Him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.

Three days are repetitive throughout the Bible and God only knows why HE chose three days to bring forth resolutions!

If God can wait three days, why is it so hard for us to wait on the Lord?
