They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.- Matthew 25:3-4
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.- Matthew 25:3-4
The above verse is taken from the parable of the the ten virgins that went to meet the bridegroom (Matthew 25:1-12). Five has extra oil for their lamp while the other five didn't.
In the year 2018, it's imperative that you have an extra oil for your lamp. The wise virgins were those that prepared while by having an extra oil.
For you to achieve your goals in the year 2018, planning and effective preparation is essential. So many have already started the year without any extra oil. For someone, your own extra o might be an additional income, for some, it might be to start a course. For some it might be to start saving. Extra oil is what you need in case your lamp goes out before you achieve your goal (which is to meet the bridegroom).
You will be foolish to start the year without any preparation or whatsoever on what you need to achieve your set-goals. Many people fail because they start the year and leave their fate to luck or 'God' as they claim.
Your extra oil is what you will need in times of emergency. Your level of preparation will determine your level of achievement. The 5 wise virgins were able to meet with the groom because they had extra oil.
You never could tell when that training or seminar could come handy. You never could tell if that investment is going to be the biggest. You must always be ready and prepared, that is what it means to have an extra oil.
Be wise, get your extra oil. When preparation meets opportunity, success is inevitable.
Good Morning and have a great day.
