Acts 11:24 He [Barnabas] was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.

Thoughts
Phil Ware    Barnabas was a good man! Why? For many reasons. But, the key reason was that he was full of the Holy Spirit and faith. This shouldn't surprise us. When the Holy Spirit lives in us, he is at work producing the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23) and conforming us to the character of Christ (2 Cor. 3:18). No wonder Barnabas' influence was so great on the lives of those who lived in Antioch; his life was under the influence of God's Spirit!

    Dear Heavenly Father, I want my life to be influential for the good of the Gospel and the growth of 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 in me the fruit of your Spirit. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
