You have it backwards. It's "forewarned is forearmed". That means that if you have advance warning of a bad situation, you can take steps to avoid it or at least mitigate the trouble. For example, if you know that it's going to snow you might pack extra sand and a shovel in the trunk of your car before a trip.
