“Prepare Yourself” by Kirk Hunt
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Ephesians 6:15 KJV
The work required more physical fitness than I assumed. Walking 4-6 miles a day, in all kinds of weather. Climbing in and out of the van. Lifting the bunk lid to get at my stuff. My deployment required more endurance, strength and flexibility than you get from just sitting at a desk.
God prepared an opportunity to reach people, but part of my preparation involved strength and aerobic exercises. My ability to minister depended on going to the gym. Who knew service involved so much athleticism?
Have you answered God’s call on your life? Good. Are you preparing for all aspects of your calling? I pray you are. Your full calling will require more than you realize.
Exercise and eating correctly? Sounds mundane, does it not? Mundane does not mean unimportant. If you are going to answer your call, go all the way.
I worked every work day, and even some of my off days. , I had the physical resources to do so because of my preparation. My calling deserved nothing less.
Think through all aspects of your calling. Be prepared for every aspect you know. Ask God to show you anything you missed. Your calling deserves no less.
Think: Preparation for my calling involves a whole life commitment.
Pray: “Lord, help me to be disciplined in every aspect of my calling.”
