On Your Mark

TOPIC: Being Ready

SCRIPTURE: "Uzziah had an army ready for battle...he prepared for all the army all the resources they would need." (2 Chronciles 26:11,14)

OBSERVATION: Uzziah King of Judah became a successful warrior and city builder. He was skillful in organizing things and delegating. We see in these verses that he was a man that thought through details and that resourced his people well.

APPLICATION: As I was reading through this account, what was most noticeable to me was that Uzziah had his army READY for battle.

#1.) Are you READY for what life might throw at you?

#2.) Do you have "your army" READY?

"Your army" = could be your spouse, your kids, and or the people in your organization.

Are they ready for what life might throw at them?

Remember
in order for them to be ready
that means
That you must also resource them

SO

PRAYER: Father God, help me to do everything I can do #1 to be ready myself and then #2 to help my wife and 3 girls to be prepared for what life throws at them.
