We explore what “be strong” means in 1 Corinthians 16 and why Jesus tells his followers to stay and receive power before they go. We link Word and Spirit, show how Paul led in Corinth without relying on polish, and offer a simple prayer that God loves to answer.

• five commands for men in 1 Corinthians 16:13–14
• strength defined as Spirit-empowered power, not mere talk
• Acts 1:8 and the pattern of stay, receive, then go
• Paul’s ministry in Corinth as power over persuasion
• reuniting Word and Spirit for stable, useful lives
• a practical yielded prayer for fresh power
• repentance, forgiveness and obedience as pathways to strength
• daily steps to be watchful, firm, courageous and loving
