Prepare the Way

People really don’t just rise to the occasion. You will always fail or fall to the level of your preparation. This means you cannot — will not — rise above your preparation.

Prepare for success: 

Prepare is defined as: make something ready for use or consideration. We must constantly be preparing ourselves for whatever it is we are dealing with in life. Lack of preparation is the thing that causes people to fail. If you prepare properly, it will give you the best opportunity to succeed.

Give yourself a chance:

If you are going to run a marathon, you must prepare beforehand to succeed. You will have to begin to run a certain amount of miles a day to prepare to run the marathon. Lack of preparation will guarantee you failure. But if you put in the work, you will finish the marathon.

If you don’t properly study for the test, you will probably flunk it. If you study properly for the test, you will give yourself a chance to do well on it.

Overcome by the word of God:

When life hits you, and negative circumstances attack your life and cause you pain, if you have studied the word of God and placed it in your heart, you will overcome. You will not fall but grow and develop and become stronger. You will not quit or give up. You will come out on top. Why? — because you prepared for it.

Just a thought,
