Your life should be designed to become a witness of Christ. If you focus on imprinting the Word and praying on a regular basis, the fruits of evangelism will naturally bear, and you’ll testify of Christ. In particular, the military is a good field to experience the works of Christ. Then, how should military ministers prepare?

1. Eyes That See Reality and the Field
It’s true that the Exodus, the wilderness, and the appearance of the united forces were hardships that were difficult to endure. However, there are some points that must be confirmed. First, discover what is absolutely impossible which you can’t do with your own abilities. Second, confirm the absolute possibility of entering the promised land of Canaan which is an absolute plan that will be actualized without fail. Joshua knew these facts exactly and prayed, “Say to the Lord, let the sun and the moon stop.” Like Joshua, a military minister can view a crisis in the field as an opportunity to see unprecedented and never-repeated answers and start praying to enjoy his or her status and authority.

2. Eyes That See the Future Facts
There will be many problems in the future; however, they are the journey of answers. The Exodus and the wilderness path were all God's plans and methods. The existence of the military field itself is evidence of an unprecedented and never-repeated answer. A military minister must proceed toward God's goal which is the land of Canaan without any room for resentment.

Military ministers must do what is absolutely necessary in the sight of God. By experiencing “only Word”; “only prayer”; and “only evangelism,” you can change the wrong imprints, roots, and nature of the military field.

Dear God, please make my life into a witness of Christ. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

* What Is God’s Absolute Plan?

Problems don't come all of a sudden. When problems arise, it’s easy for most people to panic or try to solve those issues on their own; however, spiritual interpretation and faith are required. First, you must confirm the natural causes of those problems. Then, confirm the inevitable reason why they had come at this time schedule. Finally, seek out the absolute plan of God who allowed these issues.

In order to open your spiritual eyes, your daily prayers must be built up firmly. Regardless of the situation, emotions, or status, whether there are problems or not, you just need to keep praying calmly. In doing so, God will answer all impossible problems and incidents with unprecedented and never-repeated evidences and blessings.
