T.C.U.P.T. (Part 6): D.I.G.

The concept of D.I.G. is listed in Deuteronomy 10:6-7.

6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera:  there Aaron died, and there was he buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.

7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.

- Deut. 10:6-7 (KJV)

The three cities that the people traveled to were Mosera, Gudgodah, and Jotbath.  Each of these names have a meaning.  Mosera means discipline.  Gudgodah means incision.  Jotbath means goodness.  Can you dig it?

Discipline
Incision
Goodness

There are two steps that lead to goodness.  The first step is discipline.  You must be able to control your actions before you can progress forward.  Then, the second step is incision.  After achieving discipline, you must then look to introspectively evaluate yourself.  Once you fix the outside, then you can fix the inside.  Finally, goodness is achieved.

Notice that in verse 7 that the rivers of waters were located in Gudgodah, which means goodness.  Walk in goodness in order to experience a never-ending spiritual flow.  Many people do not flow spiritually because they do not take the time to either discipline themselves or to evaluate themselves.  D.I.G. and you will eventually reach water.
