AUTHORITY IN JESUS' NAME-2

Text : Philippians 2:9&10

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; 

 *The name of JESUS is the only passport you have to God's throne.* 

The approach you use when using the name of Jesus to command a situation is quite different when you are making a request in His name in the place of prayer. The reason many don't have their prayers answered is because they pray amiss. 

When you pray, you are not to pray to Jesus but to God in the name of Jesus. This is where many believers miss it altogether. John 15:16,16:23 & 26 established the fact that you pray to God in Jesus' name. 

Jesus said in John 16:23 that whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in His name, He (the Father) will give it to you. 

So, you must be well grounded in the fact that all prayers are directed to the Father (God) in the name of Jesus. 

Praying and giving thanks to God in the name of Jesus gives you the right access of fellowship with God. . 

One major key to effective use of Jesus' name is having FAITH in His name. You must strongly believe that the name will always answer for you. You must unwaveringly rely on the resultant effect of the name. No wonder we are told not to take the name of God in vain. Exodus 20:7. 

Taking the name of God in vain might as well be equivalent to calling or using the name without believing in its potency.

Apostle Peter said about the man that was healed at the beautiful gate that it was Faith in Jesus' name that got him healed.  

And his name, through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. Acts 3:16.

Many people will often think that calling Jesus' name several times or shouting it on top of their voices will make the name more potent and powerful to deliver the desired result. While it may not be a bad idea to shout the name, it is important to know that the potency of the name is not released when it is shouted or chanted. *The name of Jesus simply works and make power available when it is called in Faith.* 

If only you will use the name of Jesus in Faith, then you will be able to take delivery of your miracle today. Acts 2:21.

Bible reading: Mark 16:1-20.

 *PRAYER FOCUS.* 

1.) Use the name of Jesus to drive out that sickness out of your body. Command the devil to take off his hands from your life, health, family, business, ministry in the name of Jesus.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
