Sometimes the greatest moves of God happen far from where we expected. Paul went to Philippi not because it made strategic sense, but because the Spirit redirected him there. No synagogue, no crowds, just a quiet riverside gathering and one attentive woman named Lydia. Yet in that humble setting, God opened a heart, birthed new faith, and sparked gospel work that would influence an entire region. Lydia’s story reminds us that God often moves in still places and simple moments, and our role is simply to go, speak, and obey when He opens the door.
