THE NAME OF JESUS IS ENOUGH FOR YOU. WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 18
TEXT: Acts 4:13-18
KEY VERSE: “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth.” Romans 10:10.
Before Jesus’ birth, an angel of the Lord appeared to troubled Joseph and announced, “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Matthew 1:21. Apostle John wrote in 1 John 3:8, “The Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” Centuries earlier, Prophet Isaiah had prophesied concerning the Messiah, “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” Isaiah 61:1. Jesus said concerning himself, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10. All these scriptures point to one fact: Jesus is the object of salvation, deliverance, breakthrough and everything that is good and desirable. In His name, all things are possible.
What does the name Jesus mean to you? It means salvation (Matthew 1:21). His name is sufficient to heal (1 Peter 2:24). His name delivers from satanic bondage (Luke 13:16). His name is sufficient to prosper and enter into abundant life (John 10:10). His name delivers in times of trouble (Proverbs 18:10). When Peter and John visited the temple at the beautiful gate (Acts 3), they met a man who has been lame from birth and they decreed healing in the name of Jesus. This incident troubled members of the Jewish council who arrested the disciples and commanded them not to speak or teach in that name again. The kingdom of darkness and its agents tremble at that name. As a rule they don’t mention it in their kingdom because of the commotion that will follow. That is the name given to the children of God to triumph over the forces of darkness and to overcome troubled situations. Do not allow anyone to deceive you by introducing you to some miracle articles or objects, or to some 'powerful' man of God. Let your faith remain in Jesus whose name is sufficient to comfort, to prosper, to deliver and to give life eternal. Thought for the day: Fix your eyes on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of your faith.
Song for the day: His name is higher above all other names
