God has prepared in advance good works for us to do. This applies to Every True Believer. If we want to know what good works God wants us to do, firstly we need to be a True Believer in God. Then we need to take initiative when we see things that need to be done which we can simply do, these things are usually practical. Finally, we need to take time in the Lord's Presence and in pure Fellowship with His People to establish any other ministries that He may want us to do. "God calls busy people" - true.
