Time to Gear Up-Prep for Battle!

Good morning,

Overseer reminded us on Sunday that true alignment requires intentional preparation. We’ve been in mess too long—and if we want to live pleasing to God, we must clean our spiritual house, change our surroundings, and commit to God’s standard. That means creating a prep system—daily habits that prepare us to face life’s battles with strength and victory.

Foundational Scripture: Ephesians 6:11… Let’s dive in…

Start your day with God … read Ephesians 6:10-18 focusing on 11. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. You are in a real battle and the enemy’s goal is to destroy you… it’s time to suit up! S.O.A.K… much love!!!

Paul isn’t suggesting armor as a maybe—he’s telling us it’s a requirement for spiritual survival. The enemy has strategies, but so does God—and His Word is our training manual. Armor isn’t just for crisis—it’s for consistency.

Prep Steps to Win the Daily Battle:

1. Start with the Word: Before you scroll, sip, or speak—read a verse. It sets your mind for the day.

2. Check Your Circle: Alignment requires the right atmosphere. Evaluate: Are your closest people helping you grow or feeding your mess?

3. Stay Prayed Up: Prayer is your power line. Set a reminder to pause and pray throughout the day—even 60 seconds can realign your focus.

4. Worship While You Work: Turn your home or car into a sanctuary. Worship creates a war room where peace and power flow.

Here’s some encouragement for you today:

God has already equipped you for battle—you just have to suit up. Real alignment starts with one choice at a time. Today, choose to armor up and prepare for victory!

Pray this prayer with me:

Lord, help me get in alignment with You. Give me the strength to put on Your armor daily and live by Your standard. I’m ready to fight the right way. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Much Love 💕
