Something About That Name!!!

A thread twosparrows started was bumped to page 2 before many got a chance to reply. His question was: What does "in the name of "(Jesus) mean to you?

I'm not sure what it means to others, but to me it means there is authority in a name. "In the name of Jesus" is something that we say when we are taking the authority of Christ, God gives us authority over certain things on the earth.

When I pray I pray in the name of Jesus, I am addressing the Lord, as my authority.

I'm not really sure this makes sense to everyone, that is the best way I can put it. What does it mean to you?

Kind of like.. a king sends his servant out to do something on his behalf, like go to a different country..and the king says to the servant "If they ask who you are, and what you're doing there, tell them I sent you." I always thought of it like that.

Sometimes when I get stressed or things don't seem to be going right I think on the name of Jesus. I think about how it means ' Jehovah is Salvation ' Then I think about the reason He saves; because He loves, He proved it on the cross, He loves me! He also has the power to save and proved it when He rose from the dead. So the One who created all things; the universe, the earth, me, the One with power over death, who gives eternal life, loves me and is taking care of things. Then I feel so much better!

I like and agree with what all of you said. There's MUCH POWER in the name of Jesus! Colossians 3:17----------- And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
