Real ministry starts with God.  The real work of the Church starts with God.  First, God wants us to draw near to Him to give us a revelation of Himself and His will for our lives and ministries. You can see this in the life of Moses, David the shepherd boy, the prophets, even Paul the Apostle.  Before they could do God’s work, before they could do what we call ministry, they all had to draw near to God. When they did God, first revealed Himself to them and then second revealed His will for their lives – the thing(s) that He wanted them to do then they obeyed.
