Philip was an obedient-to-the-word believer who was willing to share the gospel to others who were willing to listen. Philip did not force witnessing situations, but relied on the Holy Spirit to create witnessing opportunities and engaged people through normal conversation rather than pre-rehearsed presentations. Where the Holy Spirit guides a believer to evangelize others, He will also create the context and give clarity of thought and words during the presentation.

Evangelism always starts with God, in which He works in the hearts of others to prepare them for His message. The Ethiopian eunuch came to know Christ as his Savior because of the work of the Holy Spirit directly working in his heart and through His obedient servant Philip. The Spirit of God used the word of God through a man of God to bring the elect of God to salvation.
