Preparation Leads to Provision

Farmers and gardeners know there will be no crop if you plant no seeds. There is needful preparation in order to receive an full harvest: tilling the ground, irrigation, pruning, etc.

A farmer cannot sit around idly and expect an abundant crop, and the same is true for us spiritually.

If all 10 virgins (Matt. 25) would have been stocked up on their oil, they all would have had the provision of a husband, but sadly five did not.

Hard times will come to the just and the unjust (Matt. 5), and we must keep ourselves in the word and communing with the Lord daily to keep our lamp lit. If we neglect it, and fail to make preparation, we will not receive the provision of His coming.

The bridegroom only takes those home that keep their lamp lit, so keep pushing on church, we must be ready for His coming!
