BLESSINGS OF TRUST IN GOD

Daniel 6: 25-28

Then king Darius wrote unto all people, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth: "Peace be multiplied unto you. I make a decree, that in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the GOD of Daniel; for He is the living GOD, and steadfast forever, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and His dominion shall be even unto the end. He delivereth, and rescueth, and He worketh signs and wonder in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions." So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus, the Persian.

After king Darius had thrown Daniel into the pit of hungry lions, Daniel's faith and steadfast trust in GOD, manifest with signs and wonders, turned the heart of Darius from evil to good.  

Throughout the Scripture, steadfast trust in GOD is demonstrated by the conversion of others to the Way of the LORD. Daniel received deliverance and the blessing of peace; Darius received the testimony of the faithfulness of GOD and was converted; then Darius testified of the greatness of GOD and Cyrus was converted.  Daniel found favor and prospered in the reign of both Darius and Cyrus.

Trust in GOD is like a pebble in the pool; it has blessings for the faithful ones, and carries blessings for those who observe and are touched.  So it is with our life; when we trust in the LORD with all our heart, leaning not unto our own understandings, others will see and believe in the GOD whom we trust and be converted.  

Stephen's trust in GOD opened the door for the conversion of Saul of Tarsus who became Paul the Apostle. 

TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND SEE OTHERS COME TO CHRIST.
