Isaiah 41:10
The Battle
May 5, 2009Introduction
We all go into different battles of life, it may differ on how it is being started or how you deal with, but above all, it is a battle of your own principles, belief and will.
Preparation
What do students/workers do before they go to their school/workplace? What do a chef do before they start cooking and serving the meal? What do the boss of the company do before presenting the company’s marketing strategy to the board? And you, what do you usually do for a whole day’s activity? One thing that each of these scenarios have in common is they all first PREPARE.
We can’t just go into the battlefield unprepared. Most of the people who goes into a battle without any preparation end up losing their dignity and personality. Being prepared is also accepting the fact that they can either win or lose in a battle and somehow prepare themselves on facing its outcome.
Now what are the things you need to do in preparing for a battle? Check this out;
1) You need to identify the problem or its source then analyze it. Find its root (if possible), take a chance on researching, and treat that problem as a situation and not a curse, remeber that God won’t give you problems that you can’t handle.
2) You need to think and formulate all your strategies, right down its pros and cons, and imagine the worst case scenarios.
3) Before anything else, trust your self and put all your worries to God, walk by Faith, and ask for his guidance that you may have the will and strenght to face your battle.
Journey
After you have prepared everything you need, you’re now ready to begin the next phase… The JOURNEY
There are lots of things that can happen in a journey. The best example of it is it can change your decision or even YOU during the course of the journey or at the moment when you arrived at the battlefield. It can either make you or break you, its the hardest decision that you can encounter, because from the moment you step on and start the battle YOU ARE AT THE POINT OF NO RETURN.
Fin
After a long journey, here comes the outcome, the moment we’ve all been waiting for.. and what would that be.. well, you ask for yourself… Coz every person’s battle have its own unique ending.
