The Bible says here that ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer. So the weakness of the ant is their lack of physical strength, right? Now it's said that ants are able to actually carry about a thousand times its actual weight over its head. So in comparison to another ant, it's pretty strong, okay? But here's the thing, in comparison to me, it's not that strong, okay? But the Bible says here that what they lack in their physical strength or their prowess, what do they make up for? In wisdom. How? They prepare their meat in the summer. They know it's going to take them a certain amount of time to get to their destination, to gather their food, to make it back. They know that winter is coming, therefore they use all of summer to prepare for that winter. Look at Proverbs 6 says, go to the ant thou sluggard, sluggard means lazy, slothful, so on and so forth. Consider her ways and be wise, which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, provided her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. So we see that the ant here doesn't have a guide, doesn't have an overseer or a ruler. What does that mean? They don't have someone cracking the whip on them and say, hey, go get the food, go get the food, go do what you're supposed to do. No, they just do it. So obviously ants are a little mature, right? They have the wisdom, the discernment that God has given to them to prepare and to do what they're supposed to do when they're supposed to do it, okay? And look, we need to be prepared Christians, okay? Don't wait till the last minute to make big decisions, but also in a practical aspect as far as sowing, look, we need to prepare when we go out sowing as well. Whether it's preparing our hearts by praying, asking for boldness, asking for God to fill us with the Spirit, or just preparing by memorizing verses, right? Reading the Word of God, getting prepared mentally, getting prepared physically, getting prepared with your Bible, getting ready to go out there to preach the gospel and see people saved. But preparation is a wise attribute to attain. It saves you a lot of heartache when you're prepared.
