• Story of Stephen being stoned in Acts 7 and seeing Jesus seated at the right hand of God.
• When we confess Him before men we are obedient unto God and His Word and we can either be confessing the hope of the gospel through our faith or we will deny Him.  Let us put off the leaven of the Pharisees and literally fear God and trust Him.  We fear Him because He is righteous and we are not.  He’s worthy of our trust and our praise.

• Don’t have a doubtful mind – doubtful means “fluctuate”.
• It is the Father’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom.
• Be of the ground that is free of the cares of this world.  Don’t be concerned about worldly things.  The Lord provides.
