Advocating for Jesus means representing Him through our prayers, words, and actions. It’s not just about talking about faith but living it out daily. We lift others before God in prayer and ask for His guidance and wisdom in all we do. By praying for others, we align ourselves with Christ’s heart for them.
Our words matter, too. When we speak truth, kindness, and encouragement, we reflect Jesus to those around us. As 1 Peter 3:15 says, "Always be ready to give a defence to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you" (NKJV). Being an advocate means sharing our faith with gentleness and pointing others to Christ.
Finally, our deeds speak louder than words. By serving others, showing compassion, and living with integrity, we become a living testimony of Jesus’ love. We can be His hands and feet in prayer, word, and deed.
