Stephen had the face of an angel
By Elizabeth Prata
And all who were sitting in the Council stared at him, and they saw his face, which was like the face of an angel. (Acts 6:15)
But if the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? (2 Corinthians 3:7-8)
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. (2 Corinthians 3:18)
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:6)
The more we look at Jesus, the more we behold His glory. Then the more His glory changes us into His likeness.
How do we look at Jesus? In prayer, through His word, by resisting sin, by repenting of sin, by obedience to His word in our daily, practical lives.
