Good morning dear one!

I want to encourage you today that all things are possible through THE POWER OF THE NAME OF JESUS!  Philippians 2:9-10 say,

• Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him THE NAME which is ABOVE EVERY NAME, that at THE NAME OF JESUS every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

There is POWER to overcome anything in this life through THE NAME OF JESUS!  The Scripture declares in Acts 4:12,

• And there is salvation in no One else, for there is NO OTHER NAME under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

I know that through HIS NAME and through THE POWER OF THIS NAME we have access to God.  Hebrews 4:16 declares,

• Let us then fearlessly and confidently and boldly draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in good time for every need [appropriate help and well-timed help, coming just when we need it]. 

I want to exhort you today that God’s Word can never fail. Do not rely on human plans. God will work mightily when you persist in believing Him in spite of the discouragements from the human standpoint.

Peter and John were illiterate men ~ they had no college education, but they were in contact with the wonderful POWER OF THE NAME OF JESUS. They were the ones who handed out the bread and the fish after Jesus had multiplied them. They sat at the table with Him, and John often rested His head on Jesus’ bosom (John 13:23). Peter was rebuked quite often, but Jesus manifested His love to Peter through it all.

I am here to tell you today that no matter how unmanageable our tempers may be or how wayward we have been, JESUS is a wonderful lover!  He is so patient.  There is POWER IN JESUS and His wonderful NAME to transform anyone, to heal anyone.  

I pray that you see JESUS as God’s precious Lamb, as His beloved Son Who had laid upon Him the iniquity of us all, and if you will see that JESUS paid the whole price for our redemption so that we can be free, you can enter into your purchased inheritance of salvation, life, and power!

THE NAME OF JESUS is so wonderful!  In Acts 3, we can see that Peter and John had no conception of all that was IN THAT NAME; neither had the man, lame from his mother’s womb who was laid daily at the gate; but they had faith to say, “IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, RISE UP AND WALK.”  And as Peter took him by the right hand, and lifted him up, immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength, and he went in the temple with them, walking, leaping,and praising God.  

I know our Lord JESUS wants to see more of this.  So, how can it be done?  Through HIS NAME, through FAITH IN HIS NAME, through the faith which is by Him.  Glory to God!  

THERE IS POWER IN HIS NAME!

Living in the power of His Name,
