2 TIMOTHY 2:21
The Bible talks a lot about preparation. For every faithful Jew, the sixth day of the week was a day of preparation for the Sabbath. King David made substantial preparations for the construction of the temple, even though he knew it would not be built in his lifetime. John the Baptist also prepared the way for Jesus. Jesus sent His disciples to make preparations for the Last Supper.
Sometimes, we are in a hurry to implement our plans and reach our goals. But if we are not careful, we will miss the events or times that prepares us for greater heights.
Not much in our lives happens successfully without some form of preparation. Sometimes, like King David, we are involved in preparation for which we never see the end result. But the best, and most beneficial preparation, is the time we spend alone with our Father in heaven, listening, learning, growing, getting ready for the next step and our usefulness in God’s agenda.
