Event: Paul in Ephesus
S - Scripture
Acts 19 v. 11-12 And God did extraordinary miracles by the hand of Paul, so that handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them.
O – Observation
Ancillary impact. Second hand impact. That's what was happening in these verses. God was using Paul in all ways. Primarily as a spokesman for him. Secondary, even his clothes has the power of Christ. Which makes me think, that we too can have a ripple effect with those around us, both the ones we know and the ones we don't know. Perhaps more than likely, not healing garments, but conversations that occur between people that discuss what you might of shared with them. Sharing the Great News of Jesus death and resurrection not only impacts these hearing it, but also the people that they talk to. Its highly likely that what you share will impact people you don't even know. Now that is cool. That is God's power!!!
A - Application
Am I causing ripples?
P - Prayer
Jesus, Let my conversations about you travel to many circles. Love Will
