As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me
Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them (Acts 13:2)
It’s our priestly responsibility as
Christians to minister to the Lord, and it’s important in this special month of
Fellowship, that you understand how to do it, and the benefits that accrue from
it. The first thing to do in ministering to the Lord is to focus your attention
on Him in worship. Secondly, learn to speak words of praise to Him from your
spirit; words that extol His majesty. Such praise should have content.
For example, simply saying, “Lord, I
praise you,” isn’t enough. You’ve got to tell Him what you’re praising Him for.
Tell Him how wonderful, loving and kind He is; you ought to give substance to
your praises of Him this month. So in ministering to the Lord you focus your
attention on Him and praise Him from your spirit with words of worship and
thanksgiving. The Lord responds to you when you minister to Him like this.
When the apostles ministered to Him and
fasted as we read in our opening scripture, He responded by giving them
direction regarding an important issue. In the same way, God gives you guidance
and enlightens your spirit as to what you need do in specific circumstances as
you minister to Him. He ministers strength to you and prepares you for the task
ahead. Glory to God!
Your fellowship with the Holy Spirit becomes
effective as you learn to minister to Him from your spirit; He participates in
everything you do and dispenses His blessings into your life. You also
experience His transportation as He moves you from one level of glory to
another.
So make it a conscious practice everyday to
minister to the Lord; and you’ll experience supernatural protection,
impartation and growth as he had declared concerning you this month.
