Identified With His Name
Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ,
and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place
(2 Corinthians 2:14).
The Name of Jesus is the greatest name ever revealed to man; it’s
the most powerful name, not only in the world, but in the entire
universe: that’s the name by which God created all things.
God has vested all authority in that wonderful and matchless Name
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Philippians 2:9 says, “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him,
and given him a name which is above every name.”When you confessed
the lordship of Jesus over your life, you were baptised into the Name
of Jesus; and you automatically became a part of that Name.
Galatians 3:27 says, “For as many of you as have been baptized into
Christ have put on Christ.”
You should be glad to be identified with that Name. It means whatever
belongs to Jesus belongs to you!
Satan has no claims over you anymore; you belong to Jesus Christ,
and the Name of Jesus is named upon you. We live in His Name;
we pray in His Name.
Colossians 3:17 says, “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all
in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.”
That’s the way to live a supernatural life. You function and live in the
Name of Jesus.
That means you’re living for Him, in His authority. Can you see why
it’s practically out of place to live in defeat, failure or poverty?
We’re called to live in the Name of Jesus; in the Name of the creator
of the world. I can’t consider or conceive of anything more sublime or
transcendent!
It’s a wonderful Name; an excellent Name?the matchless Name of Jesus Christ.
If you have a tumour in your body, say, “Tumour, in the Name of Jesus,
you can’t stay in this body; I command you to die and pass out of my body!”
And it’ll go.
If you have a problem with your heart, use the Name of Jesus as an instrument
against that infirmity.
Say, “Heart, I command you to function normally, in the Name of Jesus,” and
there’ll be a change.
Whatever situation confronts you is subject to the Name of Jesus Christ.
Declare for yourself: “In the Name of Jesus, I’m growing in grace; I’m
excellent; sound and healthy; strong and vibrant!”
Take advantage of that Name and bring calmness, peace, tranquillity and
prosperity into your life and that of your loved ones
Prayer
Dear Father, I’m glad to be associated with the most sublime, powerful and
most excellent Name that exists.
I take advantage of the Name of Jesus, and live by the power and authority
of that Name.
I speak peace, progress, health, prosperity and victory, into my life and
that of my loved ones, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
