PREPARE!

Exodus 15:2 The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father'sGod, and I will exalt him.

Problems come and problems go, right?   Wrong! There’s coming a day, very soon that world problems won’t just go away.  Not a theory, it is in the Bible. Either you believe it or you do not. That is your decision. We, as Bible believing Christians, need to be prepared for this harsh reality. What if  ‘that day’ doesn’t happen within a year?   It’s still coming.  Be prepared!   No one knows when.  Get prepared now! Like children, we don’t know times nor dates of the Bible.  Israel is our guage though. Once I asked little Deannie Jr what time it was and he said, ‘time for my blankly y pacha’. Kids don’t know the exact time but they catch the clues. Right after thanks giving, but way before Christmas, my kids knew Christmas was coming by the advertisements and decorations. Well, we’re seeing evidence of what’s coming too, through Israel.  Don’t be fearful, but be firm and ready.  Prepare!

1 Corinthians 16:13 - Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

How is the most effective way to prepare for nightmares like a Chinese, Russian, Hezbollah or Hamas attack, a 3rd World War, global depression, a global panic, death of a loved one, ‘pandemic’, bankruptcy, unemployment, cancer, draught, the tribulation or global famine?   Worry?  No. Worry is a prayer to yourself.   Prayer?   How exactly?   How do you pray for what you don’t know about?  By stockpiling?   Stock piled stuff rots, plus while your doing that, you are robbing from God for ministry needs of today.   The best preparation, like the first verse says, is to move God into your house by accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, and He will live inside of you.  All fear will be gone.   You will be prepared for whatever life throws at you.

Proverbs 24:27 - Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.

That verse above is our plan to prepare.  First, be a minister to others.   Serving others is preparation for the things to come in so many ways.   First, and foremost, serving others comes out of a personal relationship with Jesus.   Can’t give what you don’t have.  Also you are strengthening the church (body of believers).  When I imagine end times, I always visualize believers helping one another.  Another benefit is that helping others is pure good mental health practices.   Keeps you active, out of the house.   Good cardio also is a side effect, which is important in end times as well.   Like I said tons of benefits, and then you can build your house.  Take care of yourself and family of course, but others first.  Personally, there is nothing more revolting than a selfish Christian.

Proverbs 16:1- The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD

I am counseling a Christian who doesn’t feel like doing the right thing.  Very common, in fact.  Feelings are the ‘f’ word of Christianity.   Get ready to die to your feelings, especially in times like these.  Feelings are Satan’s tools to deceive the elect, and to make the world hate you even more than they already do.  Feelings will get you killed in harsh times.  You do and say the right thing when you are a dedicated follower of Christ.  Feelings have nothing to do with anything.   Hot, cold, under the weather, sad, broke, hungry, thirsty, injured, betrayed  or hurt.  It doesn’t matter.   Others are watching and counting on you, so just get up and do the next right thing, in the right way, to bring God the glory and to accurately portray Him.   We are in the last days I believe.   We as believers have to prepare, physically, spiritually and mostly mentally for what is to come. Jesus , not feelings, is the only way.  And we need to teach others.

Isaiah 60:1-5 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you.

If the Lord is in your heart, you will have a teachable spirit.  That will help you during the difficult trials to come. Most deaths in combat are from disobeying orders, or forgetting common training in boot camp.   With God in your heart, not only are you filled with supernatural wisdom, guidance of the Holy Spirit, respect for authorities etc, you will have humiility and love in your heart.  A gentle answer steers away wrath.  But the elephant in the room is about end days.   The rapture?  The 2nd coming of Christ.  Right now there are tons of questions.   For the prophesies of  Ezequiel to happen, America has to disappear first (the way I see it).   But again who knows.   Pre trib, post trib, really? Who cares?  Live like you’re pre trib, prepare like your post trib.   Love like there is no tomorrow. ‘Evangelize Evangelize, and when all else fails open your mouth’ (St Francis of Asisi).   

Like previously mentioned, there are other ways to practically prepare.

1. Hide the Word in your heart

2. Get books.  Internet might not work.   First aid books. Survival books.  (Not necessarily for yourself, but helping others).  We’re going to heaven, but we are here right now to help others.. Hymnals. Bibles.  Print out stuff from the internet or look for books while you can buy them for 25 cents in used book stores.. my personal favorite is WHERE THERE IS NO DOCTOR. I know I have saved lives with that book.

3.  Learn what to do in times of war.  MAy come to America.   Not to be afraid, but to be able to help others and to not be a burden. For example open your mouth if your getting shelled (to keep from loosing your hearing).  Don’t necessarily stockpile but keep good supplies of everything.  Tank full of gas, always. Your electric car charged. Rain barrels trapping rain water are great. Learn how to purify water. Take a first aid course. Have a month worth of cash on hand and hidden away.   Sleep on the floor during fire fights.   Bullets and shrapnel pass through walks usually at bed level.  Have a go bag by the door (if you have to run out of the house fast, you will have all of your important stuff in ONE back pack).  Walk walk walk walk walk, you will be walking a lot.  If you have  spent the last ten years on the couch or driving, you are going to have problems.  You will be a liability instead of a blessing.  Prepare to be a  blessing.

4. Serve and love others.   If you have not been doing this, start.

5. Develop right now a strong prayer life.  If you don’t pray in good times you will not pray correctly in bad times.

6. Teach you kids to obey you immediately.  Go now! means right now.  No questions.  Sounds harsh but will prepare them a little.

This is what I see from the scriptures.  Hopefully I am wrong.  All I know is, someday there will be no more questions!  And being prepared is for your own good.

Pureheart Update -   MINISTRY GROWTH HERE IS EXPLOSIVE.  EVERYTHING WE DO IS ABOUT DEMONSTRATING THE FACT THAT GOD SO LOVED US THAT HE GAVE US HIS SON.. JOHN 3:16, WHICH IS ALL ABOUT LOVE.  

THE MORE WE LOVE, THE MORE PEOPLE WE SERVE AND THE MORE GET SAVED.  FEEDING CENTERS, ENGLISH-DISCIPLESHIP CLASSES, SCHOOLS, SCHOLARSHIPS, MEDICAL, BIBLE STUDIES ETC. ALL IS ABOUT LOVE.  BECAUSE OF THAT,  GOD'S PRESENCE IS FELT STRONGLY AROUND HERE.  EVEN UNGODLY HEATHENS THAT COME INTO THE WINNER HOME SAY THEY FEEL PEACE IMMEDIATELY.
