The Anatomy of a Very Good Day
Richard Bradley
Acts 8:26-40
When was the last time you had a really good day? No matter how good that day was I assure you it was not as good as the day you got saved. On that day everything between you and the Lord God was eternally settled. You were born again into His family. He is now your heavenly Father and heaven is now your home. Now that was a pretty good day!
In this passage we are introduced to a man that had no idea how great his day was going to be when he woke up and yet this day was the best day of his life. A lot went into his great day.

32 The place in the Scripture which he read was this:
''He was led as a sheep to the slaughter;
And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.
33 In His humiliation His justice was taken away,
And who will declare His generation?
For His life is taken from the earth.''
34 So the eunuch answered Philip and said, ''I ask you, of whom does the prophet say this, of himself or of some other man?''
