“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." 2 kings 3:16-17 (KJV).
In our text for today, the Lord instructs, "Make this valley full of ditches.” This directive underscores the principle of preparation in faith. Even though there were no visible signs of rain or natural means to fill the ditches, God asked the people to prepare for the provision of water. This act of obedience and preparation demonstrates a profound trust in God's promise. Preparing for God's blessings, even when there are no outward indications, is a testament to true faith (Hebrews 11:1).
" Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1.
“Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.” James 2:17
A man must prepare for the things he has asked for, even when there isn’t the slightest sign of fulfillment in sight. James 2:17 echoes this concept: Preparation is the work that accompanies faith, showing trust in God's timing and provision. Noah, for instance, built the ark before any sign of a flood (Genesis 6:13–22), and the Israelites marched around Jericho before the walls showed any signs of collapse (Joshua 6:1–20). These acts of preparation, in the absence of visible evidence, exemplify the kind of faith that pleases God. By preparing in faith, we align ourselves with God's plans and open the way for His miraculous provisions.
Your miracle is on the way, prepare for it, in Jesus’ name.
Prayer for today: I believe I receive my miracle, in Jesus’ name.
Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the
forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through
your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord. I invite you into my
life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want
me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.
