The Given Name of Jesus

Text: Philippians 2:9–10 (KJV)

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.

Friends, there is tremendous power in the given name of Jesus. The name of Jesus is not merely an ordinary name we mention but it represents and carries authority, power, identity, and lordship. When we call upon Jesus in faith, we are depending on the authority of the One whose name is above every name. Therefore salvation, healing, deliverance, and victory are wrapped in the name.  Hence, all that we need in life and godliness is resident in that name JESUS. CALL HIM TODAY. Yes, we face situations that appear bigger than our strength, wisdom, or ability. We may feel helpless when confronted with sickness, fear, opposition, temptation, or difficult circumstances. So, Jesus' name is not a magical formula; it is connected to faith and relationship with Christ. As believers, we have the privilege of calling upon the name of Jesus which is freely given to all. Acts 4:12 says, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”

Amazingly, the disciples experienced the authority in the given Jesus' name. Peter said to the lame man in Acts 3:6, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.” The man was healed, demonstrating that the authority of Jesus' name is greater than human limitations.  The name of Jesus brought supernatural transformation. Therefore, don't face life's battles as though you are alone. Pray in the name of Jesus, trust in His authority, and stand firmly on His Word. There is power in His name, and His name remains above every situation in Jesus' name.

Prayer Point:

Father, help me to understand and walk in the authority of the name of Jesus. Let every situation confronting my life bow to the power of Jesus in Jesus’ name.

Action Quote: Friends, when you know the power in the name of Jesus, you don't have to face life's battles in your own strength.
