Exodus 18:1-27; Psalms 56:1-57:11; Acts 10:1-23
Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. 2 Kings 3:16
Why dig ditches in a valley? A valley is a low-lying area and ditches will make it even lower! But when life is low, God asks us to dig ditches of faith through prayer. Then, when we least expect it; an answer comes, a need is met, our spirit is lifted! The people in this story needed rain. God asked them to dig ditches—without any sign of rain. The rain never came, but the ditches were filled to overflowing! Dig ditches of faith through prayer and let God provide. —Deborah Manera
He who cares for the sparrows
And numbers the hairs of our head,
Cannot possibly fail us. —Hannah Whitall Smith
