Daily Word - Ditches

Daily Word - Ditches
 
Throughout the bible we see that God's provision is preceded by a call
for our faith and obedience.  When the armies of God's people were in
battle and without any water to drink for themselves and their livestock
... God required them first to dig ditches throughout the valley they
were in so that when God provided them with water, it would be held by
these ditches and His blessing of water would not run off and be lost in
the valley.

What ditches is God calling us to dig so we can receive His faithful
blessings in our lives?  Do we say to ourselves, "I don't see any water
coming?"  Our faith and our obedience ... allows us to receive God's
blessings ... or else we may watch and see His blessings run off off and
be lost in the valley ... without our ditches being filled with His
provision.

2 Kings 3: 14-18
And Elisha said ... Thus said the LORD, Make this valley full of ditches
... You shall not see wind, neither shall you see rain; yet that valley
shall be filled with water, that you may drink, both you, and your
cattle, and your beasts
