Prepare Yourself
Isaiah 54:2-3 (NKJV), 1Corinthians 2:9-10a
Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities. *But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit.

Beloved, God is surely bringing a new level of growth, increase and fruitfulness into your life, your family, your career, your business and your ministry. You shall experience increase in different dimensions and ramifications! Now, it is important for you to be excited and expectant like we studied yesterday, but you also have to deliberately prepare yourself for what God is set to do in your life. If God is asking you to prepare, it is because you do not yet have the capacity to receive what He is about to manifest in your life. You must be ready to stretch yourself and reposition yourself in every area of your life. If you are unprepared for the kind of increase that God wants to bring into your life, you will not be able to handle it when it comes.
After Jesus was raised from the dead, His disciples expected that He would continue with them and continue to manifest His power(Acts 1:6). However, Jesus made it clear that He would be ascending to Heaven and that it would be their role to serve as His witnesses to His death and resurrection. They were to let people know that Jesus has paid the price for their salvation from sin and deliverance from all powers and bondages of the devil. The way they were to do this was by preaching the gospel, manifesting God's power and living the life of Christ. To do this, they needed the power of the Spirit
