So many people know this saying, but do they understand its context. This passage originates from Proverbs 21:31
"The horse is prepared for the day of battle, but deliverance is of the Lord,"
This passage urges us to do your best, prepare for the worst— then trust GOD to bring victory. But what causes too many people to fall short of the expected outcome is how they prepare for the worst. Let’s look towards the author of this passage. King Solomon.
In 1 Kings 3, King Solomon, newly enthroned, asks God for a "discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong" in a dream, rather than wealth or long life. Pleased with this selfless request, God grants Solomon unparalleled wisdom, along with riches, honor, and a promise of long life. See how he prepares to rule by acknowledging who puts him there.
Let us do the same and in doing so expect to win every time.

That is why it is important to seek God daily to allow Him to show you who you are and what God created you to be and do. The longer you wait to do so, the more time the enemy has to fill your mind with what he wants you to think which is foolishness.
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”
