The word "prepare" has never been more employed than now. It is
used mostly as an alarm bell these days. When really that word is
used 266 times throughout the Bible. Not just in the preparing
oneself for the coming of the Lord. It is used in many ways
relating to God. When I started really looking at that word it
became so beautiful to me, as I saw that preparation is something
done from the heart. At least when it comes to anything that
touches the Lord. 


On one hand the believer's life in this world is by osmosis a
preparing for heaven. There are other preparations that have to
do with preparing one's own heart to seek the Lord on a matter.
While there are other times going to God to ask Him to prepare
our hearts is for the purpose of going beyond the carnal realm of
prayer. Prayer is a true communion with Him. So it is necessary
in this fast tracking world to ask Him to get your heart in a
place to be able to speak to Him from there.  


There are times when a person is getting ready to die, and they
ask the Lord to prepare them for eternity. They ask Him to
prepare their loved ones for peace when they pass away. God began
by "preparing the light and the sun." He prepared a body for His
Son to come into this world to be crucified for the sins of all
mankind.  Jesus went to prepare a place for us. Therefore we
must be a prepared people to go to a prepared place. There are so
many attempts by well meaning, sincere people in "trying" to
prepare. 


They come up short because they feel that they can never be what
they should be when Christ returns. The real way to prepare is to
walk out your life hour by hour in the way of the Lord. Living
before the Lord in loving obedience to Him. As well as in
everything they do with their eyes on Him. Let God prepare you
for everything now while you are alive on earth. And let Him
prepare you for eternal glory. After all, that is the workmanship
of the Holy Spirit who is making you ready. God is a preparing
God, and He has prepared everything for us. Let us go to Him and
ask Him to prepare us, and let Him do only what He can and will
do to His eternal glory and ours for His namesake.  


“It was the mighty power of the Holy Spirit dwelling in Him by
which Jesus overcame the world–and that same quiet power, if it
dwells in us, will make us win the same victory by faith.” ―
Charles H. Spurgeon
