The Wonderful Name of Jesus
In today's episode of the Kingdom Lifey podcast, we will delve into the topic of the powerful name of Jesus. As believers, we often hear the phrase "faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God." But what exactly does this mean? How does faith come through the word of God? In this article, we will explore the significance of the name of Jesus, its authority, and power, and the impact it can have on our lives.
Introduction
The name of Jesus holds incredible power. In Philippians chapter 2, verse 9, we are told that God elevated Jesus to the highest place of honor and gave Him a name above all other names. This means that there is no name on Earth or in the spiritual realm that can be compared to the honor given to the name of Jesus. It is a name that carries authority and can command every knee to bow in heaven, on Earth, and under the Earth.
The Power of the Name of Jesus
In the New Living Translation, it is stated that God exalted Jesus to the place of the highest honor. This honor is unparalleled, and it signifies the authority and power that the name of Jesus possesses. Many people rely on different spiritual activities and names to access the spirit realm. However, the Bible makes it clear that it is the name of Jesus that holds the ultimate power. When we use His name, every name and situation must submit and bow before it.
Understanding the Purpose of Using the Name
The name of Jesus should not be taken in vain. It carries a spirit that backs up the situations we want to address through that name. Therefore, when the Holy Spirit dwells within us, we can effectively address any situation directly using the name of Jesus. However, it is crucial to be in the center of God's will and align our desires with His. In doing so, the name of Jesus becomes more potent in fulfilling our heart's desires according to God's will, rather than our own.
Believing in the Name of Jesus
To truly experience the power of the name of Jesus, we must have unwavering belief. In Mark chapter 16, verse 17, Jesus states that those who believe in His name will drive out demons, speak in new tongues, pick up snakes, and be unharmed by deadly poisons. This belief goes beyond asking for personal needs; it encompasses a complete trust in the authority and power of Jesus' name. Our belief system should be rooted in the understanding that His name can accomplish miracles and signs that validate our faith.
Misconceptions about God's Answers to Prayers
Oftentimes, people believe that God has three answers to prayers: yes, no, or wait. However, this belief is not scriptural. The Bible teaches us that if we know to do good and do not do it, we are in the wrong. God is not evil, and His intention is not to withhold answers to our prayers. The problem lies in us, not in Him. When we align our prayers with the will of God, understand the power of the name of Jesus, and walk within the context of scripture, we will witness the effectiveness of using His name.
The Complete Scripture and the Name of Jesus
The scripture is complete and provides us with everything we need to navigate through the challenges of life. The name of Jesus should not be taken lightly or used merely as a religious activity. As Christians, we must fully grasp the power and authority in the name, allowing it to work wonders in our lives. By projecting love and God's will for humanity, addressing situations through the name of Jesus, and receiving understanding and results, we can experience the full potential of His name.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the name of Jesus holds immeasurable power and authority. It is a name that can address any situation and command the submission of every name in heaven and on Earth. Believing in the name of Jesus requires us to align our desires with God's will and have unwavering faith. By understanding the purpose of using His name, debunking misconceptions about God's answers to prayers, and staying within the context of scripture, we can tap into the full potential of the name of Jesus.
