There was a testimony of a servant of God travelling on a narrow
bridge that could only take one car at a time. Suddenly there was another truck
coming from the other side of the bridge. There were two options; either they
had head on or one reverses for the other. However, they were both speeding and
the option of reversing was out of the game.
The servant of God had his wife beside him. He said that the wife
started shouting “Jesus,” until he cautioned her by saying “one Jesus is enough
for this situation.” According to him, how the two vehicles went through
without any accident still remains a mystery to him.
Names are very important. They are brands. They are ways of
distinguishing who is who. Names have meanings. Jokingly there is a Yoruba
adage that says that it is the effect of the name in the life of a man named
Adeshina that will make him end up as a gateman.
Names establish authority. The acts, the miracles, the healings, the
raising of the dead, the casting out of demons – all were done in the name of
Jesus.
I looked at the name of Jesus and realized that there is just
something special about the name of Christ. Acts 4:10 says “Be it known unto
you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth
this man stand here before you whole.”
The name heals; delivers; saves; blesses; sets free; promotes; raises
from the dead and so on and on. There is nothing that you need that is not in
the name of Jesus. New wine is there. Better jobs are there. Good spouses are
there. Wonderful kids are there. LR3 jeep is there. 5 bedroom duplex is there.
The name is an all in one name. It is omnipotent.
Death hears the name and trembles. Sickness hears the name and
vanishes. Debt hears the name and disappears. Shame hears the name and turns to
double honor.
I speak today that everything you desire in that sweet name of Jesus
be granted to you in Jesus Name. Amen!
