A Man Full of Faith
Scripture: Acts 6:5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.
Observation: Wow would I like to be called a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes I don’t appear to be a Christian at all by the way I spend my time, my anxiety and impatience. For people to see someone as full of faith, what kind of man was he?
Application: To strive to be that kind of man. To trust in God and ask Him to increase my faith and to fill me with the Holy Spirit. To be in His Word and study, to be ready to serve and use my life as an instrument to serve my Lord.
Prayer: Dear Father increase my faith and open my eyes to what it is you desire me to do. Fill me with the Holy Spirit and use me and teach me how to live my life. May I accomplish all that you have set out for me to do in glory and honor to your name.
