Thou preparest….
Preparation! Not many want to go through it if we will be
honest. It is one of the most excruciating moments of a person’s life
especially when the question of peer pressure and threat of living with failure
comes to mind. (Click here and tweet

before you are allowed to make your move? Jesus experienced it, I have experienced
it and you also might be experiencing. People saw a “King” in David when slew
Goliath yet he had to run because it wasn’t his time. He had to run because he
knew it wasn’t his time. David understood what PREPARTION is all about thus he
was willing to wait and go through the process.
The gift, talents, skills you possesses comes in their raw form.
The factory of life would have to stretch you so you can mature in the handling
of what God has given you. (Click here

components you need in your preparation period. Until you begin to see as God
wants you to, there will always be a delay in the reason why God had to take
you through preparation. Your gift, talent or skill will take you anywhere in
life, but do you have the prepared character to sustain yourself? Once you have
been prepared, you can have longevity in your sphere of your endeavour.
Moses, one of the greatest leaders histories will ever
produce, had to go through forty years of PREPARATION before being released. From
a prince to being a fugitive of the Egyptian penal system, God prepared him for
forty years before being release at eighty. He encountered so much changes going
through the preparation period. The process bred in him a divine level of maturity
to handle difficult issues. When everyone around him wanted to give up, he
could easily inquire on the Lord for his next move. Patience is such a powerful
virtue that any one called onto greater works needs to pray for it. (Click here and tweet this). For preparation
without patience only leads to a destruction and disgrace.
Questions: What does preparation mean to you? Have you gone
through a period of preparation before? Has having the patience to be prepared
produced result? Kindly leave your comments on the blog!!!
