The Power of the LORD.




"The power of the LORD came on  Elisha, and he said, "This is what The LORD says: "Dig ditches all over this dry stream bed. Even though you will not see any rain or wind, this stream bed will be filled with water,and you,your cattle,and your pack-animals will have plenty to drink."

2 KINGS  3: 16-17


This happened when the armies of Israel, Judah, and Edom were facing a serious shortage of water. 
They had gone into the wilderness and had no water for themselves or their animals.

Through the prophet Elisha, God gave an unexpected promise: water would come even though there would be no visible sign of rain or wind.

There is a wonderful lesson here:

God can provide where there seems to be no provision.

His work does not always require visible evidence beforehand.

What looks like a dry valley can become a place of abundance.

Faith means trusting God's word even before we see the answer.

Verse 18 adds something important: “This is an easy thing in the eyes of the LORD.” What seemed impossible to the people was not difficult for God.

For our lives: 
Sometimes we look at a situation and see only a dry valley. God may already be preparing the provision, even when there is no wind, no rain, and no visible indication of change. 
We can continue to trust Him and faithfully do what He asks.
