“Acts 7”
Stephen a man of God speaking the Truth to the Sanhedrin the keepers of the law of his time murdered for speaking that truth. But as they were stoning him he saw heaven open up and there on the throne was God and “STANDING” at the right hand of God was Jesus Christ. Everywhere else Jesus is sitting at the right hand of God. For speaking the Truth and not backing away from it Stephen received the equivalent of a standing ovation from Christ. Do you want Jesus to give you a standing “O”? Then do not stray from the Truth do not move to the left or the right but stay centered and your eyes on Jesus Christ in your walk here on Earth and when the time comes that stones are being thrown because you speak the Truth about Him who IS Truth will be standing in your honor to present you to His Father. For everyone who shares Christ will be presented to the Father by Christ. If you speak of Him He will speak of you. If you speak the Truth and share His goodness He will speak of you to the Father about your goodness. Listen to this as Stephen was stoned he asked the Lord to forgive the people stoning them and that is the key verse today.
Key Verse:
Acts 7:60
Then he fell on his knees and cried out, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he fell asleep.
Acts 7:59-60 (in Context) Acts 7 (Whole Chapter)
