Stephen Looked Up and Saw

Stephen was the first Christian martyr refusing to deny Christ but to stand fast holding faithfully to God's eternal truth but his death wouldn't be the believers last Stephen was full of the holy spirit obedient as Paul taught the Ephesian church to be constantly filled with the spirit having God indwell him knowing his divine touch Stephen looked up searchingly to heaven there expectedly wishing for his eyes to see what in heaven would he feast upon? knowing that his saviour had died on a tree Stephen looking ahead saw God's glory so majestic and glorious leaving one in awe the human mind can't take all this in God's awesome glory so pure having no flaw Stephen saw Jesus the eternal Son standing truly at God's right hand the one who had risen from the dead now there was Christ on heaven's land (''But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. And he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.” ) Acts 7: 55,56 (ESV)
