The Basic Training Challenge – The Church Then And NowSample
Day 11 — Vision Statement
Pray:
Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive Your Word. Amen.
Read: Revelation 1:1-20
Reflect
According to tradition, the apostle John survived execution for his Christian faith. He was then sentenced to exile on the island of Patmos. God chose John to describe what Jesus had already done on earth and what would come as a result of Jesus’s death and resurrection. How does John describe Jesus? What is John’s mission in writing this book (vv.10, 19)? What does Jesus say? How would I describe Jesus to others?
Respond
Lord Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit, allow me to see You in all Your glory as the apostle John saw You. Amen.

About this Plan
God began by calling a man, then a nation, and finally through Jesus, established a church. The Basic Training Challenge provides you with a starting point to learn about God’s mission here on earth through the Christian church. Similar to your basic training, this plan will challenge you to get spiritually fit in God’s Word.
