9 Steps to Prepare for Something NewSample

Build an Altar First
The Children of Israel started building an altar first. They were called back to build a temple, but the temple is not where they started. They started by building the altar to offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice to God.
The altar is where God meets us. It is a place for sacrifice, worship, and prayer.
Sacrifice is an act of slaughtering or surrendering a possession as an offering to God. It isn’t pretty, but it is necessary. Sometimes we have to shed some things before we can move forward in what God is calling us to do.
Scripture
About this Plan

The book of Ezra is all about rebuilding the temple. And in Ezra chapter 3, we can glean step-by-step instructions on the preparation process for starting something new. Whether you are starting a new ministry, a new business, or a new role at work or church, this plan will arm you with all you need to get ready.
