HIS
NAME IS WONDERFUL
Memorise
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
Read
Isaiah 9:6–7
6 For unto us
a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his
shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God,
The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the
increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of
David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and
with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will
perform this.
Message
One of the names of Jesus is Wonderful. That name
denotes miracles. In this name is deliverance. Deliverance from an unclean
spirit is a miracle. Mark 1:23–26, tells us the story of a man with an unclean
spirit. A single demon inhabiting a man can be a terrible situation. But thank
God that He has the power to set the captives free. The man came in contact
with the Lord and he was free. The situation becomes more serious when a person
is possessed by several demons. Luke 8:2 says,
“And
certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary
called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,”
Mary Magdalene had seven demons inhabiting her. If
a woman with one single demon would be considered a witch, a woman with seven
demons will be a chief among witches. Now, try and comprehend the situation of
a man who had a legion or six thousand demons inhabiting him. In Mark 5:1–15, a
man who was possessed by at least six thousand demons was delivered. Such can
only be described as wonderful. It doesn’t matter how many demons are troubling
you, in the Name that is above every other name, you are going to be free.
Let me narrate the true story of a highly educated
man, who for one reason or the other was taken over by certain demons. The day
they brought him, I thought they had brought a mad man. The way he was looking
and everything about him showed signs of a seriously possessed person. Then he
began to tell his story. If he scratched his head, cockroaches would come out.
If he put his hand into his ear, a butterfly could come out, and he wasn’t a
magician. He said, “Just look at it, any part of the body I scratch, an insect
will come out”. I told him that I know someone who could set a man free from
Legions, regardless of how many they are. At the Name of Jesus, every knee shall
bow. I prayed a simple prayer and he left. Two weeks later, he came back. I
couldn’t recognise him; he had been completely transformed! That name
“Wonderful” is also demonstrated through the miracle of raising the dead.
Raising a person who has just died takes a miracle (Mark 5:35-42). Raising
someone who is about to buried will take a bigger miracle (Luke 7:11-16).
However, raising someone who has been dead and buried for four days is
wonderful (John 11:39-45). Lazarus was not just dead. He was dead, buried and
rotten. But there is a God. He is the One who can reverse the irreversible. He
raised Lazarus from the dead. Has anything been pronounced dead in your life?
This same God will attend to your case.
Action
Point
Call on that name ‘Wonderful’ to bring to life everything that is dead
and buried in your life.
