THE KEYS-THE NAME OF JESUS AND FAITH

” ASK USING MY NAME, AND YOU WILL RECEIVE, AND YOU WILL HAVE ABUNDANT JOY.” JOHN 16:24

” FAITH IS THE ASSURANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR, THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN.” HEBREWS 11:1

Our Lord has given us ample opportunities to live our lives here on earth with joy in our hearts and with peace of mind. He does not allow anyone of us to struggle on our own unless we so choose. He has provided us with promises throughout the bible and he is forever faithful with each promise. He has given us the keys to be able to access these promises. We may read and know every promise in the bible but unless we are able to accept them and act upon them, they are of no use to us. We must have faith. We must believe that when our Lord speaks, we will receive. We have mentioned many times that without faith we are left unguarded and at the will of the evil around us. There is no light at the end of the tunnel and no way out. But with faith, we have our Lord Jesus. There is great power in his name. When the devil and his demons hear that name, they flee. There is no way they can overcome the strength and power of the name of Jesus. There are many who say they trust in God. But what God? There are many different Gods. However, when you say the name of Jesus it rouses the ears of those around us. They either become upset and criticize us or they take a strong interest and want to hear more. It is with great faith and the Name of Jesus that our God hears us. Without faith in Jesus our God in heaven doesn’t know us. Jesus is our mediator, our protector and our Savior. It is with faith that we receive Him. It is by faith that we act upon His word. It is by faith that we trust in what he tells us. It is by faith that we listen to the Holy Spirit and follow His lead. We have the keys. Now we must use them. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
