EQUIPS

When the temperature drops and your job is outside, you must be equipped with the proper gear.  This year for duck season I got my husband heated gloves, heated socks and a heated coat.  This gear will keep him warm when the temperature is frigid. 

To do our job efficiently we must be equipped with whatever is needed to help us perform our particular task.

I don’t know what you job or role is, however I do know that we all must be prepared for life.  With that being said, what do we need so that we can accomplish all the life tasks God gives us? 

As I am brainstorming my mind goes to the song, “All We Need is Love.”  So where does that perfect love come from? 

Perfect love comes from the Lord.  He loves us unconditionally.  He loves us whether we have walked the straight and narrow or ventured off the path. 

So what does this have to do with being equipped?  When we fully understand that the Lord loves us we go to Him first. This is what being equipped means.  We have complete faith and trust in the Lord.  We know that He equips us with whatever we need to perform the tasks He has for us. 

Before your feet hit the ground go to God in prayer.  He will equip you for your day ahead.  He knows what you need to perform the tasks He has placed before you.   

Hebrews 13:21New International Version (NIV)

21 equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

When Christ calls you He equips you!
