Dear Builder,
It’s always a pleasure to connect with you again. I trust your week has brought growth, even if wrapped in a few challenges. Remember: every obstacle is a setup for a testimony. Take a step in faith towards the solutions, and God will meet you there.
We're now in the final part of our series on Brother Paul’s marketing strategies and how he went viral in Athens from Acts 17. If you missed any earlier editions, I’ve included the links below so you can catch up.
Let’s dive into this final insight, one that may shift how you think about sharing your value in today’s time.
Strategy 4: Let God Handle the Outcome
“Some mocked… others said, ‘We want to hear more.’” — Acts 17:32
This might just be the most underrated moment in my opinion in Acts 17.
After all the boldness, strategy, and Spirit-led brilliance… here’s the result Paul got:
Some mocked.
Some were curious.
A few believed.
And Paul? He walked away in peace.
This hit me differently because let’s be honest, many of us don’t walk away in peace. We post. We launch. We pour our hearts into something.
Then we check the numbers. Refresh the feed. Measure our worth by the reach.
But Paul understood something timeless:
Faithfulness isn’t in applause, it’s in obedience.
Paul didn’t manipulate the outcome.
He didn’t beg for attention.
He didn’t stress over analytics or second-guess his call.
He planted the truth and trusted the Spirit to water it.
I’ve worked with several individuals who’ve wrestled with the same tension:
→ Show up boldly.
→ Serve truthfully.
→ Surrender the outcome.
And every time, the pattern’s the same:
Those who chase control? They burn out, shrink back, or water down the message.
But those who release it? God surprises them.
Unsolicited podcast invites.
Strategic partnerships.
Viral moments they never planned.
Why?
Because when you carry the assignment, God carries the outcome.
💡 Kingdom Reminder:
You don’t need to chase conversions at the stage of planting
You just need to carry your assignment with faith.
You’re not called to chase applause.
You’re called to steward moments.
That tiny room. That comment thread. That post.
That’s your field.
And the fruit? That’s His responsibility.
🔧 Builder’s Heart Check:
Ask yourself:
“Am I trusting God with the outcome, or performing for approval?”
Signs you might be in performance mode:
– You stress if your post flops.
– You delay launching until it’s ‘perfect.’
– You tweak the truth just to trend.
If that’s you… pause.
Breathe.
Surrender.
Then say aloud:
“God, I’ll plant the seed. You bring the harvest.”
Even Jesus wasn’t accepted everywhere.
Even Paul left some cities with just a few followers.
You were never called to force fruit.
You were called to faithfully sow seeds.
And if your eyes stay on Jesus, not the algorithm, you’ll keep showing up in peace, no matter the numbers.
We’ve reached the final part of our Acts 17 deep dive.
But this isn’t the end, it’s your blueprint.
Here’s your 4-part blueprint for Kingdom marketing in today’s time:
✅ Observe before you speak
✅ Speak their language
✅ Protect the message — don’t perform
✅ Let God handle the outcome
Whether you’re public speaking, posting, pitching, preaching, or praying… let this guide you.
And when the pressure hits, remember:
You’re not just building a brand.
You’re building the Kingdom.
Let’s keep building,
