THE NAME OF JESUS

December 30, 2013

In life, names are very important. Prov 22:1 says, “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.” One good name that I know is the name of Jesus. Bible says in Phil 2:9-11 that, “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

The name of Jesus carries the life and power of Jesus which is why the right application of the name generates great manifestation of His power. In Acts 3, Peter and John were going into the temple to pray when they noticed a man lame from his mother’s womb begging for alms. Peter looked at him and said, “Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.” Acts 3:7 says, “Immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.”

Note that calling the name of Jesus without believing in Him is a futile effort. When you believe in the power in the name of Jesus, then you can enjoy John 14:13 that, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.” The name of Jesus is powerful and life changing. Even the disciples called on Jesus when the storm arose and He delivered them.

Stop calling on people, sir, they really do want to help you but they also need help. Why not call on the Helper of helpers – Jesus. He is called The helper in Heb 13:6. I decree in the name of Jesus, that before 2013 ends, God will send help to you.
