For he [###] was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.
—Acts 11:24 (KJV)
As this scripture talks about ###, Luke reminds us just how good a man ### was! Why would we consider ### to be such a good man? For many reasons. Primarily, Luke wants us to recognize that ### was full of faith and the Holy Spirit. ###'s goodness shouldn't surprise us. When the Holy Spirit lives in us, he is at work producing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) and conforming us to the character of Jesus Christ our LORD (2 Corinthians 3:18). No wonder ###'s influence was so significant on the lives of those who lived in Antioch (Acts 13:1-3). No wonder God chose him to mentor the apostle Paul and show him how to serve in ways that multiplied disciples. ### was a good man because his life was under the influence of God's Spirit!
Dear Heavenly Father, I want my life to be influential in spreading the good news of Jesus and growing your Kingdom. I offer myself to you as a living sacrifice, asking that you conform me to the nature of your Son Jesus and bring forth the fruit of your Spirit in me as I seek to influence others to Jesus. In whose name I pray, Amen.
