Many of us boldly declare, “I believe God for my miracle, blessing, or healing!” But the real question is: Are you prepared for what you’re asking God for? Prayer and expectation without preparation often lead to frustration. In this message, we’re challenged to align our faith with readiness—emotionally, spiritually, and practically—for the blessings God is sending.Scriptures:Luke 12:48 – To whom much is given, much is required.Jeremiah 12:5 – If you can’t handle the footmen, how will you contend with horses?Joshua 3:5 – Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.Key PointsI. Expectations Without Preparation Lead to FrustrationWe often pray for increase but lack the capacity to sustain it.Numbers 11 – The Israelites craved meat and rejected manna. Their unprepared hearts turned a blessing into a burden.Lesson: Cravings without character invite consequences.2 Kings 4 – The Shunamite woman prepared a room for Elisha after discerning he was a holy man. She created space before the blessing came.II. Can You Carry What’s Coming?Blessings carry weight—promotion, influence, resources, criticism, and even jealousy.Can you handle harassment with honor?Exodus 33:18-20 – God only allowed Moses to see the portion of His glory he could handle.2 Kings 2 – Elisha received the double portion only after proving he could endure the journey with Elijah.Question: If God answered your biggest prayer today, could you handle the responsibility that comes with it?III. The Condition of Your VesselA cracked vessel cannot hold oil.Matthew 25:1-13 – The ten virgins wanted the bridegroom, but only five were prepared.Spiritually: Am I filled with the Holy Spirit and walking in obedience?Naturally: Am I stewarding my body and lifestyle well? (If your nickname matched your diet, what would it be—pork chop, pot roast, or chef salad?)When the blessing arrives, will your life be cluttered or prepared to receive it?IV. Preparation Is Proof of FaithFaith makes room for what’s expected.Genesis 6 – Noah built the ark before the rain.Preparation demonstrates that we truly believe God will do what He promised.Conclusion – Miracle Prep: FOCUSPreparation is not wasted effort—it’s faith in action. If you want to be ready for the blessing you’re praying for, keep your FOCUS:F – Faith (Hebrews 11:1) – Believe it before you see it.O – Obedience (1 Samuel 15:22) – Do what God says immediately.C – Capacity (2 Kings 4:3) – Make room for what God is sending.U – Understanding (Proverbs 3:5–6) – Trust His plan even when it’s unclear.S – Supplication (Philippians 4:6) – Pray with gratitude and expectation.👉 Takeaway: Don’t just pray for it—prepare for it.
