The Preps To Be Done Are Within...and NOW

 Obviously, we're in for it.  Things will get even more intense and nutty; to say the least. . . .

There are a few pragmatic preparations to make . . . but, having watched it unfolding and knowing where it's going, I long have, and still do--primarily above all the worldly happenings--stay focused on GOD.

The preparation above all . . . are Spiritual.  That's it.  Within.  Within the heart dedicated, sold-out to The Lord.

Seek God first.  HE will sort out the rest for your best being.

"Most people have no higher object or pursuit than the narrow limits of this vain, perishing world, and are therefor led captive by Satan at his will.  Thus it will be till sovereign grace effects a change; for at that happy period, a new world arises in the regenerate soul.  But they who live and die slaves to their lusts and passions must perish every-lastingly; so Scripture and reason evince, "If ye live after the flesh, ye shall die." (Rom. 8:13)
