Coffee Break

"The Name of Jesus"

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name
under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."  Acts 4:12

 I want to talk about the name of Jesus this morning.  It was mentioned
at church last night that you can talk about God, or you can talk about the
gods that different religions worship and call them by name, but the
trouble starts when you talk about the name of Jesus- that is taboo and
unacceptable in our society and world.  In short, they don't want you
talking about Jesus- the devil doesn't want you talking about Jesus.

Well, this morning, I am going to talk about Him.  He is the King of
kings and Lord of lords.  He is the Beginning and the End.  By Him and for
Him all things exist, without Him nothing would have been made that is
made.  There is salvation in no other name but the name of Jesus.  Jesus
was the One who was lifted up so that men could be saved.  He is the door
that leads to eternal life.  There is life in His name.  His name is a
strong tower that the righteous can run into and find safety.  At the name
of Jesus demons tremble and flee.  Sickness bows, disease bows, oppression
bows, broken heats are mended, captives are set free and strong holds are
broken.  His name is magnified above every other name.  And at His name one
day every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that He is Lord.

This morning, I am confessing now, not waiting for that day, that Jesus
is Lord!  In this battle that is being waged against the name of Jesus, you
better settle it in your heart now that He is Lord and that you will not
deny His name.  Many of our brothers and sisters around the world are being
persecuted and even giving their lives because they will not deny His name.
 That may be a scary thought to some, but there is good news attached to it
for those who will stand upon and not deny His name.  "Whosoever therefore
shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which
is in heaven." (Mathew 10:32)  How wonderful to have Jesus Himself say your
name to the Father because you did not refuse to say His name and proclaim
that He is the Lord before men!  

Have a great day.  Don't stop lifting Jesus up; there is power in His
name, and His alone!
