Water is Coming to you
“He said, “Yahweh says, ‘Make this valley full of trenches.’ For Yahweh says, ‘You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, yet that valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your other animals. This is an easy thing in Yahweh’s sight. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand. You shall strike every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.’” In the morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water. Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, young and old, and stood on the border. They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood. They said, “This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the plunder!” When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land attacking the Moabites.” (2 Kings 3:16-24 WEB)
The Israel army coalition had no water to drink for seven days. They were thirsty and asked the prophet Elisha to inquire of the Lord Yahweh.
The Lord’s instruction was to make the valley full of trenches, in preparation to collect the water.
Yet you may wonder where is the water going to come from if there is no wind or rain?
Sometimes, when the Lord asks you to get into position, just do it without trying to reason it out.
He said to make the valley full of trenches, meaning GET READY TO RECEIVE.
How much water do you want to catch? The more trenches you dig, the more water you will store, if not the water will come, but it will just flow away.
The Lord allows you to choose how much you want to act upon His rhema word. If you have faith, you will make the valley of your life full of trenches, ready to receive from Him.
The water came by the way of Edom. It is not your job to know how the water comes. The point is, the water WILL come because the Lord has commanded it.
The water had a double purpose for the Israel coalition. It satiated their thirst, and it also became an important military tactic used by the Lord to defeat Israel’s enemies.
The water that you collect in the coming days will enable you to defeat enemies in your life.
Everyone’s “trenches” are different—you will know what yours is. Whatever the Lord has put into your heart to do, remember that you can choose how much water you will collect, based on how many trenches you make.
Do not waste time questioning, “How will the water come? How is it possible?” The water is coming so it is time to get in position!

life on mar 在 [心得] Life on Mars 有雷未觀賞過者勿進- 看板EAseries - 批踢踢 ... 的推薦與評價
請尚未觀賞過Life on Mars 一、二季的朋友勿往下讀，因為涉及結局。
=========尚未觀賞者之速速離開分隔線===========
====預先知道結局將會某種程度破壞觀賞樂趣之分隔線====
記得看完Life on Mars時，心中不知為什麼覺得很感傷，
但是也讓我想起如果我思故我在，那末不能感覺或是思考的人是否存在呢？
究竟什麼是真正的活著? What is something between live and death?
也許Sam心中想望的世界是那樣的，
一個不那麼by the book但是以心去感覺的世界，
回來後的Sam非常想念那一個世界，有那麼一刻我在想，
當現實不如你所想像，你要如何去區別現實與幻覺的差別？
要如何去辨別何者為虛？何者為實呢？
當Sam往下跳的那一刻，天空好藍好藍，世界忽然又光明起來。
背景音樂是David Bowie的Life on Mars，
Sailors
Fighting in the dance hall
Oh man!
Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man!
Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
Sam跑著，開心的跑向1973年，可是為什麼、我有好哀傷的感覺呢？
BBC正在播出的Ashes to Ashes,我很期待結局。
