I was watching the Passion of the Christ and I got some revelation out of it. Jesus’ death on the cross was not a joke. He suffered on the cross for mankind. I believe no one can go through this pain for nothing. Jesus knew that His death on the cross was the game-changer. Yes and I believe it is the game-changer for all who accept Him into their lives.
The devil makes us forget the benefits of His death to keep us in bondage. Satan is aware of the benefits that belong to Christians when they get to know what is for them. When your father rejects you because you are carrying the sins of the world, that is a serious thing. When Jesus said, “It is accomplished”, He knew what He was saying.
Therefore, I believe that no one would ever be rejected if that person comes to Jesus. The Bible says whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Jesus cannot allow His death on the cross to go to waste. He will accept anyone who comes to Him. Salvation from sin was part of the deal on the cross of Calvary.
God approved the name of Jesus and made it a name that is above every other name for a purpose. There are several names in the world. Some of these names bring fear and panic. Some of these names have already caused havoc in families. When these names are mentioned, men and women of honour bow.
Recently, there has been a name called COVID-19 and this has caused so much panic and pain in the lives of individuals and families. Governments have succumbed to this name and this name has destroyed economies. But there is a name that COVID-19 fears and dread. When the name of Jesus is mentioned, COVID-19 does not have a chance.
God knew that a time is coming when some names would come into this world to cause fear and panic. Therefore, God gave us the name of Jesus. When we pray in the name of Jesus, tell me who has the power to oppose, in the name of mighty Jesus, we have the victory. When the name of Jesus is mentioned anywhere and anytime, these supposed powerful names bow. They do not have a choice.
All these benefits from the name of Jesus came about because of His death on the cross. If we fail to use the name of Jesus, we are making His death on the cross of no effect. The benefits from His death on the cross must be used and enforced. We, as ambassadors of God, must represent Him fully by using His name to the fullest. He has given us the power of attorney to use His name. When I mention the name of Jesus, sicknesses flee, irrespective of the name of that sickness.
Interestingly, the name of Jesus can resurrect dead cells and replace body parts. There is so much power in the name that I wish Christians would be aware of this and begin to use this name to deal with all the other inferior names that are making too much noise in the world. Those who do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.
I believe that Christians who know the power in the name of Jesus are very bold and confident about dealing with any circumstance. They do not care about the extent of the situation, they know that when they mention the name of Jesus, things would change. When we have this knowledge, it should generate great faith to deal with every situation.
These are just my thoughts about Jesus’ death and the power in His name. This name Jesus is more powerful than any disease, poverty, or affliction. Just use and have faith in this name and nothing shall overcome you. If you have not given your life to Jesus, consider Him and accept Him into your life and then begin to enjoy the benefits that come with the name. God bless you.
