He Has A Name – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional July 14th

(The Holy Spirit Responds To The Name Of Jesus)

TO THE BIBLE: Matthew 28:19
“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

LET’S TALK
A lot of people think the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Godhead, doesn’t really have a name.

Some even think “Holy Spirit” is His name. But that’s not quite right. “Holy Spirit” describes who He is and what He does, not His actual name. It’s like calling someone “human being” it tells you what they are, but not who they are personally.

Let me make it clearer: The Bible talks about the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. But “Father” isn’t really a name, it’s a title or role.

Think about it: you probably call your dad “Dad” or “Daddy,” but that’s not his real name, right? It’s just what he is to you. He still has his own name.

It’s the same with the Holy Spirit. He has a name that goes beyond the title “Holy Spirit.” And that name… is Jesus.

The Holy Spirit responds to the Name of Jesus. This is important to understand. Nowhere in the Bible are we told to command the Holy Spirit to do something.

Instead, He moves and acts when we use the Name of Jesus. Why? Because Jesus is seated in heaven right now, but when you call on His Name, the Holy Spirit shows up and makes His power and presence real to you here on earth.

Even God the Father responds to the Name of Jesus! That’s why the Name of Jesus is the name of the whole Godhead—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The Bible says about Jesus: “For through Him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see…

Everything was created through Him and for Him. He existed before anything else, and He holds all creation together” (Colossians 1:16-17 NLT). It even says that all God’s fullness lives in Him!

Take advantage of this truth today; when you call upon the Name of Jesus, it’s through the Holy Ghost that the presence and power of Jesus are manifested. Hallelujah

Pray:
Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of the power in the Name of Jesus. As I call upon the Name of Jesus, the presence of the Holy Ghost is activated in my life, bringing divine intervention and miracles. I live triumphantly every day, knowing that Jesus, the joy of heaven, resides in me and that through His Name, I experience the glory and power of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
