READ
5 And what they said pleased the whole multitude, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch. 6 These they set before the apostles, and they prayed and laid their hands upon them.
7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith. (Acts 6:5–7, RSV2CE)
REFLECT
Full of faith
Full of the Holy Spirit
The church prayed and laid hands on the others chosen.
The Word of God increased
Disciples grow
Obedient to the Faith
PRAY
Jesus I want to be full of faith, full of the Holy Spirit, I want to grow as your disciple, and be obedient to the Faith! I do not have that kind of power in my own strength, I need you to change me into a new person. I have been changed but need to grow everyday more and more. A baby who stops growing will not survive. I must continue to increase conversion. Help me God. Word of God permeate my heart soul mind and body and help me obey it! In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
