“And Five of Them Were Wise,” interprets the parable of the ten virgins as a law of preparation: the wise keep extra oil—faith, expectancy, and spiritual substance—ready for any delay in manifestation. The foolish rely on human timing or borrow from others, depleting reserves and missing the bridegroom (opportunity). Success demands advance preparation through daily affirmations, gratitude, and absolute conviction that supply is already present, ensuring the lamp of desire stays lit until the door opens.
