The kings of the northern and southern kingdoms, joined by the king of Edom set out to subjugate the kingdom of Moab. They set out with their battle plans and ran into trouble before any engagement with Moab when they ran out of water. The prophet of the Lord, Elisha is summoned because they wanted the Lord's help. His message from the Lord instructed them what to do so water would be provided and also revealed they would be successful in conquering Moab.
