Ask Him To Prepare You

In the year 2001, before the towers were attacked on 9/11, we received a warning from the Lord at Times Square Church in New York City about an impending crisis. We decided to cancel our events and start preparing ourselves—we met every night. I vividly remember standing in the pulpit and urging our congregation to gather strength and to align ourselves with God. We knew that a day would come when people would be filled with fear and running through the streets, and our mission was to be prepared to minister to them rather than being found among the fearful. When 9/11 eventually unfolded, we were fully prepared to assist because we had asked for God's guidance in advance. We had asked Him to reveal what we would require in the future. I'm not suggesting every situation will be a crisis, but God already knows what you need in the future. Ask Him now to prepare you. It's time to pray.
