[Hebrews12v2]

I am reminded on how Noah was instructed to prepare for his family and the families of animals that were to be under his care on the ark. This was an IMMENSE prep. Besides his family he had to store enough food for all them animals and birds.

Moses was specifically instructed by God to prepare. The people all were told to collect what they could from the Egyptians (Exodus 12:33 – 39) Gold, silver, livestock, grain etc. This was immediate and fast preps. Remember they had these preps all through the 40 years that they were in the desert. (And yes God also provided Manna, clothes that didn’t wear out, etc.)

God had Joseph go through some very trying times to mature him to trust in the Lord. Once that trust had matured, he gave him the opportunity to Prep for the entire Egyptian nation, as well as neighboring nations that traded with Egypt their riches for food.

We see many more instances of prepping. In the time of the Book of Ruth we see the story of Boaz during harvest time collecting grain to store for winter, etc. He instructs the workers to let Ruth Glean from the best parts of the harvest so her and her Mother In Law had food for the future.

The thing with Prepping isn’t if it is Biblical, (it is), But how you use and give that which you have prepped. Prepping is just wisdom for storing enough for the future use of God’s Children. The only Instance of “magical food” was in the Exodus as God wanted the Hebrew families to preserve their flocks for the future homesteads and of course sacrifice.

Faith isn’t trusting God to “magically” provide you food and things in the future. Faith is as James might say “Doing the works of God” in which you make sure to provide for your family, and those in need by using the wisdom and knowledge God gives us to provide for the needs of His children.

I have trouble when “Christians” refuse to use the wisdom and knowledge God gives us to be sensible to do works in faith that it is God’s will. Prepping as a Christian is not “hoarding” nor is it not “trusting God”.

How can you read the Bible and see people ALWAYS working to provide food and things needed for life and think they aren’t trusting God? God tells us to work and prepare. (The 7 virgins needed to prep for a long night and store enough oil for their lamps.

Matthew 25:8

And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’

Are you going to be “that” Christian?

I bought the original version of the MPS3K over 1.5 years ago. 4.5 Kw of storage and with the 1.2 Kw of panels I bought with it I have no problem running my air conditioner in my rv. When at home I plug it into an ac outlet and let it sit between my 21.3 cf freezer and said outlet. If we lose power I can easily keep the freezer running for 5 days without power, or plug in the solar panels and I can basically add other appliances and still keep it fully charged.

I have been very happy with the company, the shipping etc. But it is a heavy unit and not for a weakling to try to haul around.

I spend a great deal of time there. I cook quite a bit as I used to be a chef/cook in the restaurant industry when I was much younger.

I Smoke, BBQ, Sous Vide, Fry, Steam, Roast, Slow Cook, etc etc.

Then when I have done any or all the above I will typically Freeze Dry those foods / meals and bag them into mylar with an oxygen absorber for a future meal when times get hard later.

I love to cook, and I love storing some food for later use. My wife @MamaLlama does our Canning and freezing shorter term foods for later as well as all the main garden items.

I am with @RodTodd with this one, Bacon is a great starter for cast iron. Stay away from tomato heavy foods until you get a great cure on them.

I love how easy they are to adjust tension, as well as clean them out. Rabbitnipples.com had some really good selections and when I decided to do a pump type system, they had the PVC adapters that made the install a piece of cake. I’ll add a picture collage I just made.

@Lorri-hilltop I agree with you in prayer that Father God would shower His healing power upon your Mother-in-law and that His Grace be sufficient in supplying you and your families desires and needs during this time of trial (testing). I am reminded of an old Vern Jackson song that says that “We can’t have a testimony without a test”. I pray God’s testing provokes great fruit in your witness and trust in Christ.

Ultimately He is the Great Healer, regardless of what He decides is best in “healing” in service to His Kingdom!

In Jesus name,

I have the Antibiotic pack from Jase medical as part of my preps. It was fairly straight forward to get and shipped very quickly. A bit spendy, but worth having in your preps.

Excellent share @Squeeze , Thanks!

@Jonathan Regardless of where you keep them (shade trees sound good), you will still be putting a roof type cover over them because you need to keep them out of wet weather somewhat also. They need a dry place to rest and or raise kits (babies) and other health reasons.

Wise decision.

I bought mine two years ago. It pretty much paid for itself in a year, but just like any storage of food, you have ongoing costs for packaging and oxygen absorbers. I cook extremely large meals, then freeze dry so when shtf happens, I can just add water then eat. We have enough now for over 1 year for the two of us.

Best part is, it isn’t all sodium and junky carbs. Our food tastes great and has needed calories to sustain life well.
