Bible says that the name of Jesus Christ is the most powerful name in the whole world. When Jesus was about to go from this world He told His disciples (Mark 16:17-18), "And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
The above said signs will follow Those who believe and accept Jesus in his/her life. Many a times people think that these signs are only for some particular denominations and some believe that these signs have ceased to perform after the 1st century and that it never happens now a days. But Jesus very clearly said that these signs will follow those who believe in Him.
Yes, there is power in the name of Jesus. No matter what your problems may be it can vanish if you ask in the name of Jesus. No matter how big your sickness may be but in the name of Jesus every sickness has to bow. No matter how big may be the sins you might have committed, no matter how addicted you are to those sins still it has to go in the name of Jesus. His name is above all names and there is no other name given for our salvation as we read in Acts 4:12 "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
So there is only one name by which we can be saved and there is only one name given to us through which we can get entry to heaven the name - Jesus. Jesus has power to forgive our sins and give eternal life. That’s why Jesus said in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
Jesus said in John 14:13-14, "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.”
When we ask anything in the name of Jesus, God gives us because of that wonderful name. In the older days, kings used to give an order under the seal of their name. After that no one could over turn that command. The same thing happens when we ask in the name of Jesus. Name of Jesus is a signet ring, the decree of order. No devil or man can take away that blessing from you because it has the authority of the seal with Jesus’ name.
Yes, Jesus’ name is the most powerful name in the whole world. Come to Him and put your needs before Him asking in the name of Jesus and He will gladly grant it to you.
Blood of Jesus has Power
By Sherly Isaac
Blood of Jesus has power to cleanse our sins:
Blood of Jesus has power to forgive our sins. That’s why the Bible says in 1 John 1:7, “and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.”
Many a times people say, “I have committed big sins and I am not even worthy to ask for any forgiveness. I have done so much mistake in my life or I have committed so many sins in my life. Will God ever forgive me? Is there any way out so that I can come out of my sins? Yes, there is a way out. Yes you can get the forgiveness of your sins through the blood of Jesus. His blood has power to cleanse us from all sins and give us a holy life. No matter what big or small wrongs you might have committed, come to the cross and take a dip in the blood of Jesus and He will cleanse you from all your iniquities.
Isaiah 1:18, "Come now, and let us reason together," Says the LORD, "Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.”
Yes, the blood of Jesus will cleanse you and make you whiter than snow. Once a person asked me how we can know that our sins are forgiven? I said: “try to clean your table with tissue paper and soap water and soon you will see the difference between the cleaned surface and uncleaned surface of the table.” The same thing happens when a person accepts Jesus in his/her life. Not only they but their friends, their relatives and their family members can notice a remarkable difference in their lives.
Blood of Jesus has power to give victory over sin: The blood of Jesus not only cleanses us from all our sins but also gives us power to overcome our sins. Bible says in Revelation 12:11, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
There is power in the blood of Jesus that gives us victory over every sin and over every evil power. Once we are saved, then it does not mean that we always remain saved. We have to walk in His holiness to maintain our integrity. Temptations will come, sins and sickness will come but we can overcome all these things by the blood of Jesus.
Jesus also went through all the temptations but He overcame the world and Jesus said in John 16:33, "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."
The same Jesus who overcame the world will give you victory over everything. He will never allow you to be defeated.
Blood of Jesus, protects us:
Blood of Jesus Christ protects us from all evil. When Moses and the Israelites were in Egypt and the King of Egypt – Pharaoh was not allowing them to go to the Promised Land, then God sent plagues in that land and destroyed their belongings etc. still Pharaoh did not allow them to go. Finally God sent the angel of death to that land to kill all the firstborn of that land. Then God told the Israelites to apply the blood of the lamb so that the death angel may pass over that home and not harm the firstborn child of that home. Israelites applied the blood of the lamb. And at whichever home the angel saw the blood, he passed over that house. In this manner all the Israelites were saved without any harm.
If you want protection of God in your lives then apply the blood of the lamb (Jesus) in your life, in your home in your business and His blood will protect you from all evil, all destruction, all dangers and death.
