And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
Acts 6:8

Having faith in something greater than ourselves, gives us the ability to continue pressing on regardless of how tired, hurt or afraid, we may feel, or how uncertain the future may appear. Our hope and faith in God, is greater than anything that affects our lives. Stephen had performed great miracles among the people. Instead of realizing that God was speaking truth through Stephen, they argued with him. When his words could not rationally be disputed, no doubt because they pierced their souls, they proceeded to accuse him of being a criminal and spreading lies. They were afraid of the truth that he possessed. He wanted so much to share Truth from the Spirit of God, which was evident, and gave him joyful hope, even in the midst of facing death. God provides us with all the faith required for us to keep pressing on. When life’s uncertainties overwhelm you, have faith in Your God who is greater than all.

Prayer

Increase our faith and sustain us with Your Spirit, enabling us to face any situation with confidence and joy. Let our lives reflect an active faith, filled with hope and promise. In Jesus name, Amen.
