I like this article too "..the truth: creative poor people who act are more prepared than rich people who do nothing.
Practical Steps:
Keep your vehicle’s gas tank above half at all times
Maintain a 30-day supply of essential medications
Keep cash on hand (small bills)
Have a “go bag” ready in case you need to evacuate quickly
excerpt 2
Practical Steps:
[Be discreet rather than] broadcast[ing] your preparations [and how much gold or money that you have] to everyone; [I have heard this three times recently - people saying exactly how much money they have saved in a crowd of strangers]
Build community with like-minded people
Learn basic self-defense and home security
Know your legal rights regarding food storage and water collection
[Be encouraged]
Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Those who heed warnings and prepare are protected. You’re reading this ... because you’re paying attention. You see the warnings. You sense something is coming.
[next excerpt]
Your relationship with God is your most important preparation. You are not meant to go through this alone. God is building a community around you—people who will share resources, skills, and encouragement.
1. Foresee Danger and Take Action
“A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.” (Proverbs 22:3)
2. Store During Abundance for Times of Scarcity
“Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest.” (Proverbs 6:6-8)
3. Count the Cost Before You Build
“Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it? For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule you.” (Luke 14:28-30)
4. Work Diligently, Not Hastily
“The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.” (Proverbs 21:5)
5. Be Ready at All Times
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.” (Matthew 25:13)
6. Prepare for Opposition
“From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor... Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other.” (Nehemiah 4:16-17)
7. Heed Warnings, Even When Others Don’t
“By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family.” (Hebrews 11:7)
8. Prepare Spiritually, Not Just Physically
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew 6:33)
9. Start Where You Are: The Widow’s Faith
The Story: Elijah and the Widow of Zarephath (1 Kings 17:8–16)
10. Gather Twice as Much: The Principle of Margin
The Story: The Israelites and the Manna (Exodus 16) Provision is a gift; preparation is a responsibility. God is not asking you to survive on your own. He is inviting you to partner with Him. He provides; you prepare. He gives the harvest; you store it. And in doing so, you honor Him.
