2 Kings 3 · Grade 2

Water in the Valley

Name Date

Read the Story

The king of Moab would not obey Israel. So three kings went to fight Moab. They walked for seven days. They ran out of water.

King Jehoshaphat asked for a prophet of God. They went to Elisha. Elisha said to dig ditches in the valley. He said God would fill them with water. There would be no wind or rain.

In the morning, water came! The valley was full. The army and the animals drank. This was easy for God. God helped them win.

Memory Verse
