POWER IN THE NAME!

“I tell you the truth, you will ask the Father directly, and he will grant your request because you use my name. You haven’t done this before. Ask in my name, and you will receive, and you will have abundant joy.” John 16: 23-24 ————- ” I am not saying I will ask the Father on your behalf, for the Father himself loves you dearly because you love me and believe I came from God.” John 16: 26-27

There is great power in the name of Jesus. Our Lord explained this to his disciples as he was nearing his death and resurrection. He explains that the time has arrived when we can talk with God directly. He will listen to us and grant our requests because we know Jesus. There is only one condition. We must use the name of Jesus when approaching our God. We must know Jesus intimately and believe that we receive. If we know Jesus, then we know God. If we know Jesus, then our hearts have changed, and our lives have turned from worldly to heavenly. We will make mistakes along the way, but God loves us and will grant us forgiveness if we repent and ask. God loves us and recognizes us because we have accepted the ways of Jesus and believe in him. As a believer in Christ, we have great power at our fingertips and in our words. The time is nearing and, may already be here, when our faith must be at its strongest. It is time to read his word daily, meditate upon it daily and pray often. Our God is with us always; we are never alone! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
