summary

So what made Stephen so different from everyone else? The difference was his upper room experience. He was a man full of faith and filled with the Holy Spirit, God's Spirit. He prayed through on the morning of Pentecost and found what Jesus asked him to find. He found God that morning in all His glory as Stephen let the Holy Spirit live in him as his comforter and guide. With God living in him, Stephen could wear the countenance of an angel. He could be at peace in front of the Sanhedrin who accused him of blasphemy even when innocent of the charges. He could face death at the hands of false accusers and false witness and ask for their forgiveness because his spirit was given over to God's Spirit.

You can do the same. Stephen wasn’t special, except he gave himself to God. Then, Stephen became extraordinary!
