In Acts 20, Paul declares that he considers his life worth nothing if he doesn't finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given him of testifying to the good news of God's grace. Jesus gives each one of us a role in His Kingdom work, and our only aim is to finish our race being compelled by the Spirit and depending on God's grace to work in us and through us.

Paul begins and ends this section with the Greek word, "parakaleo," referencing how the Spirit used Paul to disciple other believers through encouragement and through certain life situations. The Spirit will do the same thing through us today. Look for how the Spirit wants to use you to encourage one another and build each other up!

The general principle for us today is that the Spirit will work outwardly through us to impact the culture around us.
