"So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman,
that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.
But the earth helped the woman,
and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood
which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth." Rev.12:15,16

It seems that it is for the woman's sake (in order to help her) that the earth opens its mouth, otherwise that 'water' would cause the woman to be drowned.
We are told at Rev.12:13 "when the dragon saw that it was hurled down to the earth,"...
So, Do you think that such an event: ''the serpent disgorging water like a river from its mouth after the woman" would have a future fulfillment? Satan must first be hurled down.
For me, in my ignorance, it seems that Rev 12:16 will have a future fulfillment and somehow "the earth" (not anointed ones) will help the anointed ones somehow...maybe standing for the truth with "its mouth" as well...in order to neutralize Satan's water (lies)?
Matthew 15: 11 "Not what enters into [his] mouth defiles a man; but it is what proceeds out of [his] mouth that defiles a man.”
How do you see that? How does 'the earth come to the woman’s help,'

My reply:
I'll take apart the verses you are asking about, to show what the Bible has to say.
"So the serpent" see Rev.12:9
"So the serpent" see Rev.12:9
The serpent is the Devil.
"spewed water"
The Bible symbolizes spiritual provisions as "water", because these are essential for life.
These can either be refreshingly healthful to impart everlasting life (John 4:10,14; Joel 3:18; Rev.22:1,17; Eze.47:7,8,9,12);

These can either be refreshingly healthful to impart everlasting life (John 4:10,14; Joel 3:18; Rev.22:1,17; Eze.47:7,8,9,12);
or bitter poison to impart death
(Rev.8:11; Jer.9:15; 23:15; Eze.34:19).
Poisonous, adulterated "water", is Satanic deception and delusion (Col.2:8; ("captive") Luke 21:24; 2Cor.11:3-4,13-15,20).
The source, realm, and agents of which, are compared to the "sea"/"deep"/"abyss"/"pit"/"Sheol"/"Hades"/"hell"
(Isa.57:20; Rev.13:1; 11:7; 8:8; 16:3)
[God says He will address Satan's deceptive powers
(Zech.10:11; Isa.51:10; Zech.14:8NIV; Eze.47:9,11)].

(See link: https://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2017/04/what-is-sheole-hades.html)
Keep in mind that the river of Rev.12:15 comes from Satan's mouth (John 8:44; Matt.15:18-19).
Like sea water, it is undrinkable. It is tolerated by those creatures which are "at home" in this sea, and naturally belong there
Like sea water, it is undrinkable. It is tolerated by those creatures which are "at home" in this sea, and naturally belong there
(Eze.29:4; Amos 4:2; Rev.20:13; 21:1; Jer.6:23; Rev.9:7,10; Isa.5:14).
The abyss of death, is comparable to Satan's mouth (1Pet. 5:8; Rev.9:11; Prov.27:20; 30:16).
Satan/the "serpent"/"Leviathan", is king over this sea/abyss/deep, and the river that issues from it.
(Job 41:1,4,15,18-19,21-22,24-25,31-33; Job 41:34NIV; Rev.9:11,2-3; Eze.34:18; Eze.32:2ESV; Job.26:6; Isa.27:1; Ps.74:14; Rev.12:3; Gen.3:15; Jer.51:35-36; Isa.11:15; Rev.16:12).

"out of his mouth"
In the time of the end, Satan forcefully "spews" this fluid from his mouth. Because this water is aimed with force and direction, it is said to be "like a river"/"flood".
What is Jesus telling us, when it says that this "water" comes from Satan's "mouth"?
Jesus also said,
"The devil....does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of the lie." (John 8:44NKJV)
Matt.15:11
Satan's "resources" are told to us...
(Rev.9:11; 16:13-14 (demons,false prophet,beast); Rev.13:2; 12:9-EHV <(G3625 ; John 14:23; Eph.2:22) Rev.20:7-9; Luke 21:20; Dan.8:13; 11:31; 12:11; 7:25; 9:27) (2Chron. 18:20-21; Rev.16:13; Deut.32:32-33; Joel 3:13; Rev.14:18-19).
So when these events unfold and Satan is "misleading the entire inhabited Earth"; Satan's deceptive power is no longer limited to his own realm of the sea/Hades
(Rev.13:1NIV -on shore/coming out of sea).
He is then deceiving God's entire habitation/inhabited earth (Rev.12:9).
He is using the "false prophet" and the "Wild Beast", by his empowering that Beast and prophet with every worldly resource and deceptive power that he possesses (Rev.13:2,11,13,7; Rev.9:1,10; Eze.14:15NIV; Rev.13:17) to conquer the saints (Rev.12:17; 13:7). (fire-from-heaven.html)
Those who make this alliance with the mother covenant and father of death (John 8:44; Isa.28:15; Rev.17:5; 9:1; 8:10-11), will in the end be destroyed by the very army of demonic deception that they once controlled (Isa.28:15-16,17-18; Rev.17:3,16).

"like a flood after the woman"
These spiritual "waters" that Satan spews at the "woman" (through the Beast and false prophet), can not be the "living water" of Truth.
No. This river from Satan's mouth...
[Matt.12:34; Num.21:6; Rev.9:19,2; <"smoke/darkness/furnace"(Deut.4:20; Rev.11:8; Zech.13:9) Isa.48:10; 59:9-10],
...is a trial that consists of powerful lying signs and portents
[2Thess. 2:9; Rev.13:14 (see WEB)]
[Beast wound: (Rev.13:12,14; 1John5:4; 4:5; 2:16; Rom.8:13; Eph.6:17; Rev.17:8NKJV; 1Cor.1:28NKJV)]
...and the messengers that carry them (Dan.9:26-27; 11:10; Joel 2:2). Satan's intent is to destroy the "woman"/promise/New Covenant hope for the remaining ones of the woman's seed.

[Recording of fourth meeting: >(https://soundcloud.com/)]
"but the earth helped the woman"
The "earth" is not the "sea".
The boundary between them, is the "shore" or, the "sands of the sea" (Rev.13:1; Job 38:8-9,10-11; Prov.8:27-29; Ps.104:5-6,7-8,9; Jer.5:22-23,26,30-31). Satan is able to breach the "earth" (God's habitation/footstool) during the Great Tribulation, by means of two conditions.
The first, is that there needs to be a steward over God's people who is wicked. Such a steward would compromise the truths of Christ in favor of worldly reward. They would pervert the interpretation of God's mysteries (instead of 1Cor.4:1). That one would fail Satan's temptation that was brought upon Christ at Luke 4:5-6 and John 6:15. In the wicked steward's greed for power (1John2:15-17; Mark 10:42-45; 9:35) they would also violate God's law regarding unclean alliances
[Isa.30:1-2,3,7-9,10-12,13; (Josh.2:1) Hosea 7:11-12; Isa.31:1-2,3 (Rev.9:7; 13:7; 11:7-8; Isa.31:1) Rev.17:3NIV].
By means of that wicked alliance
(Dan.2:41; Deut.4:20; Isa.64:8; Jer.23:14; Rev.11:8)(Link: Search result),
the harlot is empowered with an army of deceptive agents from the abyss, who themselves are empowered by Satan, to enforce her desires
(John 8:44; Matt.23:37,35-36; Rev.18:24,20; 1John3:12; Rev.13:15,2,4).
The second condition is that those subjected to these circumstances, fall prey to them (2Cor.11:2-4; Rev.2:20; 1Tim.4:1; Rev.3:1-3; Matt.25:5-7,10) (Rev.3:20; 2:17) (Matt.5:13; Luke 21:24; Rev.11:2). Prophecy tells us that the entire remnant are, "swept away".
Through these two conditions...this wicked alliance between the harlot and beast and its success among the entire remnant; the earth is mislead, and swallows demonic deception. Those of the unsealed earth, include the entire remnant. All the "inhabited earth" (not "whole world") are mislead, taken captive, and conquered (Rev.12:9; 13:7,10; 20:7-9a; Luke 21:20; Matt.24:15,24-25). Through that wicked alliance, the harlot enables the Wild Beast which comes from the sea, to "come up upon" the earth (Rev.13:1NIV; Rev.20:9; Luke 21:20).

[Recording of fourth meeting: (to be posted after meeting takes place)]
As long as the imperiled mother covenant has no supportive daughters amid Jerusalem (Gal.4:22,26; 1Pet.3:6; Isa.52:2; Micah 4:8; Zeph.3:14), their mother covenant is powerless to give life (Isa.59:15-16,20,1; Ps.98:1; Isa.40:10; Ps.110:1)(Isa.63:3-5,11-12,9; <(Matt.24:3YLT; Rev.22:16).
The mother covenant is in vital need of faithful, loyal children to serve* and support her purpose.
[Sign/indication of this service?
Consider Rev.7:3*; Rev.17:5; Rev.22:3-4NIV; Rev.14:1; 3:12; Deut.11:18]. While one is marked by the beast, the beast alone is being served (Rev.13:7-8,16; Matt.6:24NKJV).
[Mammon: Objects of confidence opposed to God (G-3126)]
How could the captivity, trampling, and submersion beneath a flood of lies upon all the woman's remaining seed, possibly "help" this mother covenant?
Michael is the first one to come to the woman's aid, through his rescue of her captive seed (Dan.12:1-3; Rev.3:20; Eze.34:12). How will those awoken, come to the help the woman?
By their being subjected to Satan's flood of lies (Luke 22:31-32; 1Pet.4:12) the opportunity is afforded to all the anointed remnant, to contend with that flood, take a stand for their love of God, Christ, and divine truth. By such a faithful stand to the death, they restore the vitality and power of the woman covenant, and help the very last of her seed to be sealed, by means of their faithful death (Mark 8:35; Rev.6:9-11; 12:10-11,1-3,4-6; 11:3; 2:26-27; Eph.2:6; Rev.11:11-12). That opportunity was formally sealed off, while overcome (Rev.9:6NIV).
- Through their initial swallowing of Satanic floodwaters, and then responding in faithfulness; they "help" the woman (Rev.12:16) to complete her membership.
The faithful remnant of the earth have their previous condemnation removed from them, in the same way that all anointed become sealed as faithful (Mark 8:35; Rev.6:9-10,11; 12:10-11; Rom.6:5).
By their submergence under Satan's flood and victorious reemergence from the power of sin and death (through their faithful death)...
[Matt.3:11; Acts 2:38; Rom.6:3-4; Col.2:12)
...the victorious faithful among the remnant cause the completion of New Jerusalem to be realized!
(Mal.4:2; Rev.22:16; Ps.19:4-6; Mal.1:11; Rev.16:8-9; Gal.3:27; Rev.12:1)
What of the remnant members of the earth that do not prove faithful (Hosea 13:12-13,14-15; Isa.43:4; 66:5-6; Prov.21:18)? How does their swallowing deception, "help" the woman covenant?
- It may not seem likely that the failure of some anointed to defy the flood will assist the Covenant to survive Satanic deception, [and her seed to receive the crown of life (Rev.2:10; Mark 8:35)] ...but they do "help" in two ways.
Causing or tolerating the persecution and expulsion of the faithful (spiritual "death"), is what seals each member of both sides, either favorably or unfavorably. This process advances the completion of the harvest of wheat and weeds (Matt.13:30).
(Rev.6:9,11; 17:6; 11:7; Luke 21:19; 2Cor. 12:10; James 1:2-4; Matt.5:11-12; Rom.5:3-4) (Matt.25:41-42,43-44,45-46).
In addition,
In addition,
as these who fail are mislead into deepening lawlessness and doctrinal error (Matt.24:12; 1Cor.11:19NIV), they create an increasing contrast against those who love and teach truth.
The increasing darkness pouring forth from wicked leaders, helps to awaken others as to the error (Matt.24:15-16; Eze.36:8)*, thereby adding even more supporters to the covenant woman.
---------------------
MORE ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF Rev.13:1NIV :
The "sea" beast consists of spiritual Gentiles along with the deceptive powers/spirit within them, which blind the earth in darkness (Rev.9:2-3; Eph.2:2; 4:18; 2Cor.4:4; Isa.59:9-10; 60:2-3; 42:16; 35:5).
Within the "earth"* are the unsealed priests/spiritual "Jews", symbolized by "trees" within the "earth"
(Rom.2:29; Isa.61:3; 1Cor. 3:9; Acts 7:48-49; Eph.2:22; Heb.8:1-2; 9:11).
Their faithfulness depends upon their fruitfulness
(John 15:4,16; ("remain">) Matt.24:35; Luke 6:43-45; Matt.7:15-16; Rev.22:1-2).
At Rev.12:12 we read:
"Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.” (see Matt.24:22)
"Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.” (see Matt.24:22)
This woe occurs to the "earth" (Rev.7:3-4; 9:4) after the 144000 are harvested from it and are sealed in heaven (Rev.7:4; 14:1-2,3-4). The "great crowd" consisting of the remnant, have yet to prove their faithfulness, and will do so through the great tribulation
(Rev.6:9-11; 7:9,13-14).
Weed/earth anointed who have not yet proven faithful/heaven by the conclusion of God's Judgment Day...
("earth" 2Pet. 3:7,10; James 3:15),
...go down into the pit along with those who are uncircumcised in heart (Eze.32:18-19; 28:7-8,9-10; Acts 7:51). (Rom.2:28-29)(LINK)
The unfaithful are then clearly separated from wheat anointed who are sealed and gathered into Christ's storehouse (Isa.52:1; Matt.3:12; Jer.5:14NIV; Rev.11:3,5).
>(the "heavens" Eph.2:6; Rev.12:5; Col.3:1; Luke 10:19; Heb.12:22,23 "from among mankind"/from God's "earth" -Rev.5:9-10).
The woman/Covenant is "helped" by the earth which fails to emerge from Satanic waters, because it is precisely by their failure that the distinction between the "wheat and weeds" is accomplished
(Mal.3:18; 1Cor. 11:18-19NIV; Matt.13:30; Rev.10:5,6). That accomplishment helps to conclude the Day of Judgment. Just as the unrighteous persecution help to establish the righteous; The righteous help to establish the unrighteous (Heb.11:7; 1Cor.6:2-3; 3:11-12,13-14). This is a central purpose of Judgment Day (Mal.3:18; Eze.34:17,20-25).
When the seventh angel/final prophet, places his right and left foot on the "earth" and "sea" (Rom.16:20; 8:37; Rev.2:26-28); the distinction between, and victory over the "earth" and "sea", is established and declared
(Rev.10:2-3,7; Isa.58:1NIV; Ps.19:4NIV; Matt.24:14).
Then there will be no more delay in the unfolding fulfillment and understanding of prophecy. (Rev.10:5,6; Dan.12:7 c; Eze.12:28)!

What scriptural evidence is there, to prove that the "earth" swallowing Satan's lies, does not mean that they are destroying those lies, but are "swallowing"/believing them? (Matt.23:24; 2Cor. 11:4,20)
"and the earth opened it's mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth."
(Eze.32:2ESV; Eze.34:19; Isa.30:28)
We need only look at the other verses which talk about this same "earth", to see this is true.
Rev.12:4,9,12; 19:2,19; 16:1,2,14; 1:7; 17:2,4,8; 14:3,18-19; (Joel 3:13) Rev.11:3,6,10,18; 8:5,13; 20:8,11; 21:1; 6:4,10,13; 13:3,8,11-12,14
-- Do these verses sound like the earth destroys Satan's lies,
or rather, do they indicate that the earth swallows/believes them, so that the earth is mislead?

Human's can not contend with Satanic deception on their own
(Job 41:8,9,10,11,26,27,28,29; Eph.6:10,11,13; Rev.13:4; 16:13,14,15; 2Thess.2:10).
Any who do not have the protection of holy spirit (Zech.4:6; Luke 21:36), will not succeed in rising up from the "earth", to join the new "heavens" (Eph.2:6; Matt.24:24; Luke 10:19; Rev.14:3,4; 5:9; Heb.12:22,23; 11:16; Phil.3:20; 2Tim. 4:18; 2Pet. 3:13).
As already covered; During the Great Tribulation, all the earth swallows demonic deception and worship the beast's image (Rev.13:7-8), including the third that will eventually prove faithful (Rev.12:4).
All the anointed submit to a false prophet and the representatives she empowers over them:
Consider Dan.11:
"36 “Then the king shall do according to his own will [Ps.2:1-3 (Rev.11:18)] he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god [Isa.47:8-9,11 (Rev.18:8,7; 17:16)] shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods [Rev.16:13-14; 13:11,15,5-6), and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished (Rev.19:2); for what has been determined must be done. (Matt.24:6; Dan.11:36; 12:5-7; 9:24)
37 He shall regard neither the God of his fathers (Ex.3:15ESV; Acts 3:13ESV) nor the desire of women (Gal.4:24,26), nor regard any god (Ps.82:6; 2Pet.1:4,10-11); for he shall exalt himself above them all (Mark 10:42; Luke 12:45; Eze.16:23-26,32-33,29-31; Rev.11:8).
38 But in their place (God and His sons Ps.18:2) he shall honor a god of fortresses (Amos 6:8NIV; Isa.30:1-3,8-10,11-13; 31:1); and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things (Rev.18:11-13; Eze.16:15-17,18-21).
39 He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god (Dan.11:31; 8:24; Rev.17:11; 13:12) and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him (Rev.13:15; 19:20). He will make them rulers over many people (2Thess.2:4; Rev.17:1,15,18; 13:2,8; Dan.8:24), and will distribute the land at a price (Joel 3:2; Rev.13:16-17; Micah 2:1-3,6,8-10,11-13; John10:1-2,3-4).
During this time of tribulation, all Jerusalem is surrounded, desolated, and trampled by the Gentiles (Luke 21:20,24), taken captive (Dan.11:31-33; Col.2:8), and all God's contemporary Temple stones are scattered
(Matt.24:2; 1Pet.2:5; Isa.11:12; Jer.31:10; Eze.11:17).
According to present false teachers, there is also the belief that the "earth" represents the sealed anointed, and that these "swallow" Satan's lies in the form of destroying those lies through their writings... swallowing them up as YHVH "swallows up death forever" (Isa.25:8). It is thought that in this way, those anointed writers/witnesses, save the woman Covenant. This is good human reasoning.
But in harmony with the above prophecies,
the "earth" saves the woman, by being surrendered over to Satan's power (they swallow and believe Satan's lies) for a time of testing. Those who are swallowed up, are a ransom to replace the woman as Satan's victim (Isa.43:4; Prov.21:18).

All God's anointed people in the time of the end, become guilty of spiritual fornication and idolatry (Rev.2:20; 13:7-8). All of them come under divine condemnation. There would be no hope, even for those who commit these sins out of ignorance. The only way to save them, is through discipline. At least then, there can be salvation for those who are humble enough to be trained by their adversity (Isa.59:19-20; Zech.13:9; Rev.9:18; 8:7; 12:4 etc.). When the faithful remnant emerges victorious from this time of test, the covenant mother is preserved by their faithfulness, and in their behalf.
Jesus compared the time of the end to the flood of Noah's day (Luke 17:26-27). Please compare Gen.7:24 to Rev.9:5 [A Jewish month ("5 months" -Rev.9:5), consists of 30 days each (5 months" = 5X30=150 days -Gen.7:24]
(Dan.9:26; 11:10,40; Ps.88:17).
[Means of survival: Luke 6:48; Col.2:6-8]
Just as the flood in Noah's day submerged the earth; the deceptive power of Hades' agents, trample down the earth beneath their feet, subverting the earth beneath the powers of the sea (Dan.8:12; Isa.59:14-15; Job 22:10-11; Rev.9:2-3; Matt.24:29,24-25; Luke 21:24).
-------------------------------------------
In a spiritual sense, the outcome is that the fallen earth becomes a ransom exchange in place of the woman/Covenant; so that instead of Satan drowning the woman, the unrepentant earth is surrendered instead (Luke 17:26-27; Isa.28:17-18NKJV; Zech.4:10NKJV). This is righteous on God's part, because his unfaithful people ("earth"/"land") want it that way

(2Thess. 2:10,11,12; Jer.5:5,7,9-13,18-19,30-31; Isa.28:15,17,18,19,21,22).
It is also righteous, because by means of the test which all are subjected to in common (Amos 9:9; Luke 21:35-36; Rev.3:10; 12:17); the faithful are established as such, by their contrast to the unfaithful (Rev.3:4; 7:14; Mal.3:18).
All must be tested in order to identify, confirm, and establish, the faithful remnant. In that sense, those who fail are assisting those who don't fail, to prove victorious.
Those who rise above the flood waters to declare divine truth (despite the impending sentence of death which results), attain the status of the victoriously sealed.
For scriptures to show this?
Please read Isaiah 43:1,2,3,4; Prov.21:18; 11:8
Hosea 13:14NIV
By the earth's desire to swallow Satan's lies; a clear distinction is established between these disloyal ones, and genuine lovers of YHVH and truth (Mal.3:18; 2Chron. 16:9; Zech.4:10).

That successful sifting spares the *"woman" Covenant*, by causing the remaining ones of her seed to take their solid stand for truth, despite the threats and pains that result.
(Eze.3:8,9; Isa.50:8; Matt.24:21,22; Rev.12:11; 6:9; 20:4; Mark 8:35).

Regarding your citation of Matt.15:11; Jesus was teaching the Jews that physical statutes matter less than the spiritual lesson and application behind the symbolism of those physical statutes. He was speaking of literal material forbidden foods as not defiling a person's spirit.
However,
this "river" being disgorged from Satan's mouth is not literal and material. As the rest of Revelation's symbols, it has spiritual meaning and application. Taking Satan's misleading deceptions into ones self (as the "earth" does, at Rev.12:16), does corrupt. Scriptures which show this, are 2Cor. 11:3; 1Cor.10:21; 1Tim.4:1; Gen.3:1,3.

As regards Matt.15:11 and its relevance to Rev.12:15...
Certainly what proceeds from Satan's mouth, does defile him (John 8:44). If we revisit Satan's lies in Eden; we saw and continue to see the corruptive consequences to all creation.
