How would Jesus do this - What would Jesus say.
When we pray for people - Ministering - Speaking to others we should ask the Lord what he would do and say to them - Ask how he would bless them - What he would say to them.
Just ask the holy spirit and you will be shown what to say and do for by doing this you will giving Glory to the Lord for it will be his way and not yours for he shall be your strength.
Many times we just go and do our stuff and not ask the Lord.
I know he often blesses us in what we do for that is the grace of God towards us.
We follow a prayer model on how to do things - Good as they are.
When we ask the Lord he will give us the words to speak - He may give us a word of knowledge A scripture for just then and so on.
In doing this we would be having a peace of his mind for he knows all things - Just think of that - Or he may also tell us to be still.
For just as the Lord did only what his father wanted - So should we.
Ask him and then do as he tells you for obedience is better than sacrifice.
Ask him today - Look in the word - Ask the Holy Spirit to fill you continually.
You will find that you will grow quicker into him - Become more fruitful in all you do for your mind and heart will be fixed more on him - Become more Christ like with every passing day.
Yes ask him for he will answer you - His child - Then as they say watch this space.
