Jesus loves names. He has many names.
In John 10:7 He said I am the Door.
In John 10:11 He says I am the Good Shepherd.
In John 11:25 He said I am the Resurrection and the Life.
In John 14:6 He says I am the Way the Truth and the Life.
In Isaiah 9:6, His Father called Him Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Ever-lasting Father, and Prince of peace.
In Revelation 1:8 He said I am the Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning, the Ending, the One who is, the One who was, the One who is to come, the Almighty.
Philippians 2: 9-11 “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father”
Any prayer said, however fiery, bring fire out of your mouth…if you don’t close “in Jesus Name”, it’s a waste of precious time. And we say “Amen” after a prayer closed in His Name.
Amen, is another name of Jesus – Revelation 3:14; and is also a word we all know and say regularly, regardless of what language we speak. It is the most universal of all words.
Listen to someone pray in German, Korean, French, Portuguese or Spanish, and they’ll end their prayer with “Amen.” The use of this word began in the Old Testament; the Hebrew means, “to confirm or to make firm”.. It says “So be it”; “So it is”; “So shall it be”… It carries the weight of approval, support, acknowledgment and affirmation. Amen conveys firmness and certainty.
You will have good success this 2017.
Remain blessed. Shalom.
