TOPIC : THE NAME OF JESUS
TEXT : JOHN 16 : 23 - 27
[23]And when that time comes, you will ask nothing of Me [you will need to ask Me no questions]. I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that My Father will grant you whatever you ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM]. [Exod. 3:14.]
[24]Up to this time you have not asked a [single] thing in My Name [as presenting all that I AM]; but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete.
[25]I have told you these things in parables (veiled language, allegories, dark sayings); the hour is now coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I shall tell you about the Father in plain words and openly (without reserve).
[26]At that time you will ask (pray) in My Name; and I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf [for it will be unnecessary].
[27]For the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came out from the Father.
THE NAME OF JESUS IS AN OPEN CHEQUE.
God who gave you this open cheque expects you to withdraw from this whenever there is a need.
Jesus said that for so long you have not used this name which has been given to you.
James said in the chapter four of his book that you have not because you ask not.
Jesus declared that it is your right to ask.
I pray for you that from today, you will start to utilize this great gift that God delivered to you for your all round victory in the name of Jesus Christ.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible.
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
