Revelation is a book that everyone seems to be interested in, but one that few have read through completely. As you start, keep in mind the significant points John opens with in this first chapter.
The first point is that this book is the revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave to John. It is not John’s opinion or his perception. What you will be reading came to John from God, and John simply wrote down what he had seen (vs11).
Second, it is important to know the reason God gave John this book. God wanted you to be able to know what will soon take place (vs1). It is your preview of the future.
Third, this book comes with a promise from God that you will be blessed if you read it, hear it, and take to heart its message (vs3). Although you may not catch everything the first time through, you will learn much that will challenge you. Ask God for insight as you begin. Use the questions that appear for the April 1st devotional to help you get started.

MORE INFO ABOUT ONTRACK DEVOTIONALS
GROW SELF-FEEDERS.
Rather than presenting preset conclusions, the inductive study method of OTD walks the user through a process of discovery, unlocking the Word by training them through repetition and modeling, how to ask good questions. Users are set free from dependence on media and other inputs that externally define for them what life is about and who God is. The Word becomes a real conversation with God.
IT'S A TOOL.
OTD is a daily devotional tool available in monthly booklet format designed to build the skill and discipline of effective daily Bible study, and is authored by Dwight Peterson. Each month includes both prayer list and commitment pages designed to add context to personal Bible study and to facilitate small group accountability.
RELEVANT AND FLEXIBLE.
OnTrack focuses on skill development, engaging 4 Levels of user skill in one tool. It’s relevant because it helps the user connect the Word to their own daily life and circumstances in a powerful way. It’s flexible because the content and commentary are voiced effectively for student and adult ministries alike. Can you say inter-generational?
