Part 2: Ready for Rain

Ephesians 3:20 (NIV) Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

James 2:18 (NIV) But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.

James 2:26 (NIV) As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

God initiates the biggest changes in our lives through the smallest starts.

Faith is not a state of mind. It’s a course of action.

Human action prepares the way for supernatural favor.

2 Kings 3:9-12 (NIV84) 9 So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. After a roundabout march of seven days, the army had no more water for themselves or for the animals with them. 10 "What!" exclaimed the king of Israel. "Has the LORD called us three kings together only to hand us over to Moab?" 11 But Jehoshaphat asked, "Is there no prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD through him?"

2 Kings 3:9-12 (NIV84) An officer of the king of Israel answered, "Elisha son of Shaphat is here. He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah." 12 Jehoshaphat said, "The word of the LORD is with him." So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.

2 Kings 3:13-14 (NIV84) 13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, "What do we have to do with each other? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother." "No," the king of Israel answered, "because it was the LORD who called us three kings together to hand us over to Moab." 14 Elisha said, "As surely as the LORD Almighty lives, whom I serve, if I did not have respect for the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not look at you or even notice you.

2 Kings 3:15 (NIV84) But now bring me a harpist." While the harpist was playing, the hand of the LORD came upon Elisha

2 Kings 3:15 (NIV84) But now bring me a harpist." While the harpist was playing, the hand of the LORD came upon Elisha

Simple steps of obedience (faith) bring God’s blessing and provision.

2 Kings 3:16 (NIV84) 16 and he said, "This is what the LORD says: Make this valley full of ditches.

2 Kings 3:17 (NIV84) 17 For this is what the LORD says: You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this valley will be filled with water, and you, your cattle and your other animals will drink.

2 Kings 3:18-20 (NIV84) 18 This is an easy thing in the eyes of the LORD; he will also hand Moab over to you. 19 You will overthrow every fortified city and every major town. You will cut down every good tree, stop up all the springs, and ruin every good field with stones." 20 The next morning, about the time for offering the sacrifice, there it was--water flowing from the direction of Edom! And the land was filled with water.

Hebrews 11:1 (NIV84) Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

Real faith believes big, but is willing to start small.

Zechariah 4:10a (NIV84) Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin,
