Possessed

Usually the more powerful something is, the harder it is to control. Not so with God. After Jesus returned to heaven, God unleashed his power in the world through his Holy Spirit. At the same time, he tied up that power to his Word so that we would always know where we can find it and how we can use it. This week we see how God causes his Word to spread from person to person and place to place. While the gospel has certainly spread when specific individuals have traveled to the far corners of the globe, it also spreads when God’s people stay put. God gives each of us a specific station in life, one in which we are surrounded by people, one in which we have opportunities to share the good news of what God has done for us.
