Numbers 21.7: "Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it." I received a call from a friend of mine. He wanted me to help him dig a well for a small church in edge of next county. Over years, this church had many troubles, including wells going dry. When he asked me to help, I felt presence of Lord so I knew that Lord had just given me another mission.
I loaded my tools on my old Datsun pickup (it was using so much oil that I just poured oil over motor and let it leak through cracks! Not really; just kidding, although it did use much oil). I drove 16 miles to church where some others had gathered to help dig well. Before we began, we all joined together in a circle of prayer and asked Lord to bless our efforts and church.
After prayer, I said, "Let me go down in that old open well to see if it could be cleaned out." I climbed down a ladder, and at about 12 feet, saw that well was clogged up with all kinds of debris. I climbed up ladder and stated, "This well represents what has happened to this church over years. It needs a new refreshing spring of water...a new well."
One elderly gentleman there stated, "Well, you can try to dig a new well but you probably won't be successful. All of other five wells have been failures." These wells had been dug at places where someone had used a divining stick to determine where underground source of water was. I knew use of divination was not of God (Deuteronomy 18.10).
I prayed and asked Lord to show me where to dig. I know God knows where everything is located. He answered my prayer, and showed me a spot and told me we would hit water at 29 feet. We began to dig and things started going wrong. Pipes broke. Pumps tore up. The enemy sure didn't want us to get water!
