2 Kings 3:16-20 And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts. And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand. And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones. And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water. Jehoshaphat has not done right in terms of separation, and it’s costing his people a whole lot, and now their very lives are in danger. So now he decides to go to the man of God for counseling! He realized he needed to separate from them, and yet still there is no water…what should he do?!

God lays it on Elisha’s heart what He, the Lord will do to rescue them: All they must do is dig some ditches... dig a ditch ! Why? Because God said to. But you just said in v. 17 there won’t be storms or rain! That’s right, but there’ll be water…God has spoken. Have faith…trust…lay aside all self-sufficiency, find some emptiness! The widow woman of ch. 4 brought all the jars she had faith to bring! (how many would you bring?) …Dig a ditch or God won’t fill it! God can’t steer a parked car! We need to get to action and start trying to do something for God. [No motion, no friction] What is that in thine hand? [God asked Moses...a rod!] Aim at nothing and you are sure to hit it! I’d rather try and fail than fail to try! Im out of clichés! Just do what God says, dig a fox hole and crawl in and watch Him fill the void you created! Putting faith into action…that’s the principle here! Don’t just say you have faith! The apostle James said in James 2:18… shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
