He was standing there to welcome his general home he didn't look like a general he was not one of the apostles he was just one of the regular people chosen by the people to serve the people but he was a general now before now angels had to carry people into the bosom of Abraham why because angels could not behold his face they could not look at him but after Jesus came and he resurrected from the dead he said not angels will carry you to be absent from the bodies to be present with the Lord he looked up and he saw Jesus so I see the Lord standing on the right hand side of the father and when he was praying said Lord Jesus receive my spirit people who are ignorant think once life ceases here it ends here no is a continum to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord the Lord Jesus received him and something happened to Saul of Thessus he became exceedingly mad so how many greats have we had now great grace great power great fear great signs and wonders okay now let's see what happened acts of the Apostle chapter 8 now Saul was consenting to his death to the death of Steven at that time great persecution are you ready for this tell your neighbor is part of the package i can't hear you great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria except the apostles and devout men carry grace Steven to his burial and made great lamentation over him how many other things are followed now great persecution and great lamentation some of us experienced that here last Friday do you understand me and some of us before that Friday how could this happen to us how could this ever happen to us is because when you see great grace great power great fear great wonders great signs great persecution great lamentation great joy is coming i can't hear i say great joy is coming ah Acts of the Apostle chapter 8 verse number five then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them and the multitudes with one accord heed the things spoken by Philillip hearing and seeing the miracles which he did for the unclean spirits crying with a loud voice came out of many who were possessed and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed and there was great joy in that city that's the winning moment there will be great joy amongst us there will be great joy in our city regardless of what we have gone through and what we enduring tears may t for the night joy cometh in the morning somebody rise to your feet and say "Here comes great joy." In the mighty name of Jesus everything is part of the package god knows what he's doing known unto God from eternity are all his works tell your neighbor we'll have the last laugh we will have the last because we are seated with the one in heaven we have the last laugh there will be such great joy that will spread amongst the people in the mighty name of Jesus and the people said I expected you to say we won and the people said And the people said "What season are we in what is this season what is this season somebody shout it and get it we won we won one more time we won if the Lord Jesus rose from the dead and grave could not hold him captive the cross could not keep him there even the rock cannot could not keep him there if the Lord was buried according to the scripture and he rose

where uh the prayer focus will be for this morning blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven whose sin is covered covered by who by God because he who coverth his sin shall not prosper blessed is
