Paul and Barnabas spent time praying and planning together before they embarked on their first missionary journey. Leading others to build a love relationship with God cannot be separated from the quality of relationship you build with them. Jesus built relationships with all people, but He deliberately and purposefully spent time alone with His disciples, His leaders. Long-term growth in a ministry is assured when you invest in your leadership. In the Bible God set apart as leaders those who were skilled in challenging and motivating the people to seek God continually.
Prayer can become perfunctory without inspiration.
Pray for God to lead you as you lead others to a deeper prayer relationship with Him. Model and create opportunities. Prayer is more caught than taught. Model the importance of prayer by praying as you begin all meetings. Take the time to pray during decision-making, when you hear of pressing needs, and as you are led by the Holy Spirit.
