Obedience and Expectation

The act of digging ditches was an act of obedience and expectation. The armies had to act on Elisha's instructions, preparing for the water that God promised. Similarly, we must act in obedience to God's instructions, preparing for the blessings we seek with the expectation that God will fulfill His promises.

Reflection

Is there an area in your life where you need to act in obedience to God's instructions? What steps can you take today to prepare for the blessings you are expecting from God?
