Ac 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. (KJV)
Jesus went about doing good, so can we. We are anointed with and empowered by the same Holy Ghost as He was, the same God is with us and He has promised never to leave us. Jesus said that as believers we would the works that He does.
Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (KJV)
Notice that it does not say the works that I did, but that I do. Jesus is still alive, doing the same things He has always done, He is just using us to do them. Notice also that it says "shall he do" and not he might do. Should we be setting our sights higher?
I think it's important to remember that there are many ways of doing good. The most effective deeds or acts are those that the Lord directs us to do. Jesus is our example in exact obedience, as in all things. He only did what He saw the Father do and said only what He heard theFather say, that's one reason he was so successful at all He did.
To smile, or give a hug, or an encouraging word in the Lord's timing is just as important as a "miracle" or healing. Whatever the Lord directs us to do, to whomever, where ever we are, we can do effectively because He is with us to strengthen us. He is ever with us empowering us to do good.
Be blessed and be a blessing while your out and about ... perhaps on a majestic moped ...hmmm
