Get Ready!

This blog is geared toward women, yet I felt that this subject applies not only to women, but to every believer of Jesus Christ. I would also like to apologize for not writing/posting in the past few days, I've had several deaths in my family this weekend as well as sickness. So, thank you guys for sticking with me!

Anyways...back to this post, I could think of no better way to start off, than by the Word of God.

• "Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God." -Isaiah 40:3

The word prepare is mentioned 182 times throughout the Bible. This means that obviously our Creator wants us to be prepared, for whatever comes. He prepared Noah for the flood, He prepared David to be a mighty King over Israel, He prepared His Son for the sacrifice on Calvary.

Why does God place an emphasis on preparation?
Usually when the Lord is preparing someone or something, it's because He has some big plans/stuff ahead! I know many people (including myself) who the Lord is preparing, whether this be for ministry, marriage, etc.
In 1 Samuel we read that Samuel urged the Israelites to prepare their hearts for the Lord, and to serve only him (ch. 7:3)

So, while this is a short post, I'd like to encourage you to embrace the season that the Lord has you in today. Don't rush God, His time and will are best, but you should always be open to what the Lord is trying to teach you.


Get ready for what God is about to do, prepare yourself (financially, or spiritually, etc.) for His blessings. Be open to Him, and I am confident that He will pour out His Spirit and His blessings upon you.
