PIDGIN PREPARE YOURSELF!

Joshua 3: 5 “Joshua tell di pipol, “Make una go klean unasef, bikos for dis time tumoro, God go do strong mirakle among una.”

 

Everything wey person wan do for life need preparation. If we no prepare, e mean say we don plan to fail. Preparation na when person dey make something or somebody ready before time for a purpose, event or use. For Bible, e mean both physical and spiritual readiness before God. 

Spiritually, to prepare mean to bring your life, heart, and action go that level wey you dey ready to meet God, obey am and waka inside wetin He don plan for you. 

Before the Israelites cross Jordan River go the Promised Land, Joshua tell dem one clear instruction: “Make una consecrate una self, because tomorrow the Lord go do wonders among una.” Preparation na the key wey open door to God miracle. 

You don prepare for the new year so? For the work wey God go call you do? To make impact for your world for the Lord? You ready to dig deeper inside the Word, to sabi God pass last year, to hear am better and clearer? 

If you wan make 2026 better pass last year, you must ready to put your time and effort to work, with the help of the Lord. 

Wetin e mean to prepare yourself? 

To prepare yourself mean say you dey set your heart, mind, and life in order for wetin God wan do. E no just dey about physical readiness — e dey spiritual too. God blessings dey always follow obedience and preparation. 

God dey always tell Him people for Bible to prepare demself before He go show up or move for their matter. E dey involve cleansing, obedience, and respect (for example, when Israel prepare before dem meet God for Mount Sinai or before Passover) — see Exodus 19:10–15, 22; 12:11; Numbers 8:6–7. 

Preparation for Bible mean say person dey get ready — spiritually, practically, or inside heart — for wetin God wan do, and e dey always involve obedience, cleansing, and watchfulness. 

Even for New Testament, e still talk about to ready for the second coming of Christ, for good works, and to share the gospel. Dis kind preparation no be one-time something; na lifestyle — ongoing attitude wey no suppose rest. 

But why we need to prepare when we dey already fellowship with God every day? Preparation na sign of faith — when you prepare, you dey show say you believe say God go act. God dey work with order. Before every miracle, instruction dey. So, to prepare na to position yourself to obey. 

Preparation dey remove distraction. To consecrate yourself mean to focus on God and drop any sin or thing wey fit hold you back. 

We fit prepare for different ways. Practical and spiritual readiness, as Proverbs 24:27 talk, say — “Prepare thy work without and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.” Dis one dey show say wise preparation dey come before big step. 

True preparation dey start for mind, and na God dey direct am, as Proverbs 16:1 talk — “The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord.” 

1 Peter 3:15 talk say — “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and always ready to give answer to anybody wey ask you about the hope wey dey inside you — do am with meekness and fear.” 

Preparation na posture! We must dey like people wey keep their oil full and lamp dey shine, ready for the Bridegroom sudden coming. The general principle, as Luke 12:35–36 talk, be say — “Make una waist belt dey tight and una lamp dey shine; and make una dey like men wey dey wait for their master…” 

Preparation no be one-time something. Na continuous lifestyle of readiness, watchfulness, and service. 

You don prepare so? 

REFLECTION QUESTIONS 

- Which area of my life need spiritual preparation for God work? 

- How I fit consecrate myself today? 

- I ready to step out in faith when God talk “move”? 

PRAYER: Lord, help me make I prepare my heart and life for Your plan. Remove anything wey dey block me from You. Teach me to trust Your timing and obey Your instruction so I go fit see Your wonders for my life. Amen.

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
