Ditches

Guess what? God wants to do some fantastic things in your life!
His agenda is to bless you, to grow you, to change you - but is that what you would really like?

One of the fantastic promises we have in scripture is this...
Come near to God and he will come near to you (James 4:8)
My personal opinion is that God is always ready, willing and able!
Our faith mixed with desire and action opens the door to so much in God.
Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. (Hebrews 11:6)

This is why I have been encouraging those around me lately to dig a little deeper and to see what God might do in this new season.
Revival comes to those who go after it, never those looking on from the sidelines of faith.

This theme actually occurs many many times in scripture...
- There was no oil until the gathered the vessels for it (2 Kings 4)
- There was no healing until the leper dipped 7 times (2 Kings 5)
- There was no harvest until the ground was broken up (Hosea 10:12)

What is God asking you to do for His blessing to be released over your life right now?
If you don't know, take a moment to pray right now...
See what He says...
Act in faith on it!
Maybe he is asking you to dig a ditch as some translations put it? (2 Kings 3).

When we do the little we can do - God always does what only He can do!

Something to think about...
