Bible Verse: Luke 12:47

And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.

Are you prepared?

One of life’s greatest gifts is an unexpected but wonderful opportunity. The difference, however, between success and failure lies in whether we are prepared to act on the opportunity or not.

I’ve often heard that there is no excuse for not being prepared. Because we never know when our chance will come, we should spend the interim shoring up resources and information for when things do happen. Being prepared is simply being ready. We must do our homework and our research and be equipped at all times for the unexpected.

The Lord is coming back for a people who have wisely used the meantime that He has given them to prepare themselves and those around them for future events. We must make every effort to be ready now for what is to come. All the necessary resources and information is available to us in His word, we just have to make use of it.
The Lord is also preparing a place for us in Heaven as He promised. Let’s ensure when the time comes that we will not be found wanting, but prepared and standing ready for what lies ahead.
