The world faces a water crisis. Experts predict the worst if we do not do something drastic, now! Dams sit empty, rivers running dry. People’s livelihoods are already in danger. Community prayer groups frantically organise, messages circulate: “Pray for Rain!” The desperation is palpable—without water, we die. But there’s something unsettling about our modern prayers. We approach God like an underpaid employee whose job is fulfilling our demands. We want rain without repentance, blessing without bowing. Consider Moses and Aaron at Meribah. The people rebelled, desperate for water. But before Moses could even ask God for help, he and Aaron fell facedown. They humbled themselves completely. Only then did God command the miracle—water flowing from solid rock in the desert. The formula isn’t complicated: first humility, then rain. We’ve reversed the order, demanding the provision whilst maintaining our pride. We want God to solve our drought whilst we remain spiritually parched, too proud to fall facedown before Him.
