The Power Of Jesus’ Name – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional October 24th

(Using His Name To Command Results)

TO THE BIBLE: John 14:13-14
“And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”

LET’S TALK
When you study the words of the Master in the scripture above, you’ll realise that He was referring to using His Name with authority and doing great works in His Name.

He was emphasising the power and authority vested in His Name, making it clear to us that this authority is effective in bringing about any desired result. Hallelujah!

Let’s examine those words a bit more: First, He said, “If you shall ask anything in my name….”

To ask here means to demand something. The Lord Jesus was referring to situations where you demand that something should happen in His Name.

At such moments, He says, “I will cause it to happen.” What an assurance! This is a demonstration of the authority we have in His Name.

An example of this can be found in Acts chapter 3, where Peter and John encountered a man who had been crippled from birth. Peter simply used the Name of Jesus with the understanding of the authority that it wields.

He understood what Jesus meant when He said, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do…” (John 14:13). As a result, Peter demanded healing for the man who was crippled from birth. (Acts 3:7-8). This is precisely what Jesus was talking about—using His Name with authority.

Recall what He said in John 10:25, “…I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.” He commissioned us to do the same in His Name.

We have the authority to speak to anything in His Name and have a miracle. You can speak to broken bones, blind eyes, and every challenging situation in His Name, and there’ll be a change. Glory to God!

When you speak in His Name, He’s present with divine power to ensure that your words come to pass. He guarantees the results.

This is the authority we’ve been given; it’s power beyond this world; power to change circumstances in His Name. Hallelujah!

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for the authority in the Name of Jesus. As I speak and act in His Name, every situation aligns with your will. Sickness, disease, poverty and every contrary condition bow to the Name of Jesus. I walk in this authority, manifesting your power in every area of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
