Wonder-Working
Name
Memorise
And these signs shall follow them that
believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues;
Mark 16:17
Read
Matthew 1:21-23
21 And she
shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save
his people from their sins.
22 Now all
this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the
prophet, saying,
23 Behold, a
virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call
his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us
MESSAGE
From Mark 16:17, we understand that signs and
wonders shall follow those who believe in the Name of Jesus Christ. The
wonder-working power in the Name of Jesus Christ is also declared in Isaiah
9:6. Indeed the Name of Jesus is full of wonders. In Acts 3:6, Peter the
apostle said that,
“…Silver
and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.”
Immediately Peter mentioned this Name, the feet and
ankle bones of the lame man he was talking to received strength and he began to
make progress in life – beginning with walking and later leaping. With the Name
of Jesus Christ in your mouth, nothing becomes impossible for you. Those who do
not believe in the Name of Jesus for salvation, either for religious or
intellectual reasons, may not know what they stand to lose. The Bible says:
“The
name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is
safe.”
Proverbs 18:10
This scripture reveals the secret that makes the
Name of Jesus work for someone: righteousness. Only the righteousness that is
obtainable through that Name can make the same Name work wonders for you. As a
matter of fact, it is through this Name that we receive forgiveness of sins
(Acts 10:43).
When Peter commanded the lame man to walk in the
Name of Jesus, it was done immediately. By the power in the Name, Jesus, I
command you to receive deliverance from all forms of oppression you have been
suffering from now on. The Name of Jesus Christ is anointed (Song of Solomon
1:3). This is why the Name destroys the yokes of the devil and produces
deliverance for the oppressed. A young Christian was travelling in a boat one
day, and as the boat was about to capsize, he shouted that Name. Unseen hands
came to his rescue. I pray that the Name of Jesus will begin to work for you as
you believe and use the Name as from today in Jesus’ Name. The devil may resist
anything but not in the Name of Jesus Christ, because God has given Him a Name
above every other name (Philippians 2:9-11).

Apply the Name of Jesus to any challenging
situation or to anything that represents a mountain in your life, and you will
see it give way to the glory of God the Father.
