In Joshua 3:8, God said that the priests must stand in the Jordan. This was during spring flooding. Even standing still would have been a miracle. Naturalistic explanations for stopping the Jordan River in Joshua 3 miss the point. Even if it was an earthquake, the timing was miraculous. Who would have caused the earth to shake right at that moment? God.
The priests carrying the ark had to step into the Jordan before the waters would part (Joshua 3:13). Sometimes God waits for us to demonstrate our faith before acting.
