Effective ministry of the Gospel demonstrates the Spirit's presence and the power of God working through His Word.
The apostle Paul acknowledged his weakness, even fear and trembling driving him to draw on the Lord for strength and to trust His Word. Paul's power in his ongoing ministry no matter whom or what he was confronted with was the power of God.
