No matter how well things are going right now, you can be sure a storm is brewing. That’s not negative thinking. It’s reality! Jesus said, “In this world you will have trouble [storms]” (John 16:33).
We cannot prevent the storms of life—accidents, disease, death, heartache, broken relationships, and personal failures—but we can prepare for them. Daily prayer, regular Bible study, worship, and fellowship are the best ways to prepare. The disciplines of a lifetime are what will sustain you when the storms come.
“Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth;…be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.”
— Joshua 1:8 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, give us the discipline to do everything written in Your word so that we can overcome any storm. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
