His Name


Chases all evil aside

Say the name; “Jesus,” and all spirits of evil quickly flee, and His sweet name summons all good. Never was there any other name like Jesus, nor will there ever be again. God, Himself gave Jesus His name, as He intended to give Him up to be; Savior of the world.

In (Isaiah 9:6) this prophet foretold of the coming Savior saying; “For unto us a child is born, / Unto us a Son is given; / And the government will be upon His shoulder. / And His name will be called / Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Mary and Joseph, parents to Jesus would call Him Emmanuel, meaning, “God with us.” Truly, when we say His name, Jesus, we feel the presence of God, the Father.

Say the name “Jesus” and you immediately call down heaven with legions of His mighty angels to your aid. He wants us to use His name often. Like saying, “Mother,” as children,  we called upon her for help, for comfort, for love. Jesus wants us to use His name in that same way – simply, naturally, forcefully. He wants us to use His name not only when we require help, but also when we want to express love. His name is love.

That name, Jesus, when uttered aloud in a crowd has the power to transform discord into peace. His name is peace. Right now, as you read these words think His name…Jesus. Now, whisper His name where you alone can hear, say;”Jesus.” Feel the presence of His Holy Spirit, and know He is here, right now with you!

Jesus, He is, He was, and He is to come.

APPROVED

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). (2 Timothy 2:14-26) instructs those whom He knows are His ; and don’t we aspire to be recognized as such, to be approved by God? He tells us to avoid godless chatter (gossip), because we will become more and more ungodly. God warns that what we say can affect others, even destroying the faith of some. Heaven forbid we should say anything to do such damage!   Approved we flee the evil desires of youth we pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace. We don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments because we know they only produce quarrels. As God’s servants we mustn’t quarrel; instead we must be kind, able to teach, and be not resentful.   Approved we are to gently instruct those who oppose us, hoping God will grant them repentance and lead them to the knowledge of His truth.

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...
