Admin	John 14:12-14 Posted : 21 May, 2011 06:54 PM Hello everyone: In this Scripture,who is Christ answering a believers prayer/request for. The answer is in verse 13 John 14:12 `Verily, verily, I say to you, he who is believing in me, the works that I do--that one also shall do, and greater than these he shall do, because I go on to my Father; John 14:13 and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; John 14:14 if ye ask anything in my name I will do it .

View Profile History	John 14:12-14 Posted : 21 May, 2011 08:25 PM Yes, you did! How can I say this? I don't believe specific names hold magical or spiritual powers, I know many people do and I don't intentionally want to step on any toes. However it is the reality of what the name signifies which holds and wields the real power, more precisely who the name signifies, after all when you pray in Jesus name you don't mean some little kid in Mexico.

To be praying in the names of Christ found throughout the Old Covenant, I would be praying with understanding of who He is,and what He is like. I would be praying being under the authority in His name. I would see that i happen to be a beggar before ABBA,and He is my benevolent Father. Post Reply

Add three more cents and make a nickel. Two word within these three sentences are 'Ask and Name' Now break thess verses down and give us the health and wealth understanding about these verses.

View Profile History	John 14:12-14 Posted : 22 May, 2011 07:04 AM Interesting question POIC, we have already touched on "name" but it never occurred to me to look at "ask"; it seemed self explanatory to me, however I do believe there are many wrong ways to ask and only a few right ways.to ask, but assume this to be obvious....maybe not? PS.if you start a thread on the 'prosperity gospel'....I'm there! Post Reply
