The last thing anyone wants to do is get caught off guard. Granted, you cannot be fully or always prepared for the unexpected or unknown. However, you can stay aware and alert . Staying alert 🚨 means you are going to stay focus, but you are going to keep your eyes open for any hindrance, distractions, setups for setbacks, and so on. You will not see it all. You can practice awareness by noticing the people, things, and signs that appear as those setbacks, distractions, hindrance, and pitfalls. Basically, I’m reminding you not to be naïve or get so comfortable where you are that you fail to see the traps 🪤 that those who are not for you lay down before you. You have to stay alert and aware. To reference it in biblical words the enemy(satan) comes to kill, steal, and destroy. With that being said, make sure you stay alert and aware of satan’s tactics, be prepared, don’t crack the door open for him to slip through. Keep watch but not fear. Be aware but not scared. Stay prepared by prayer 🙏🏽, meditation 🧘🏾‍♀️, studying 📖 scriptures, and staying under covenant.
