What’s In A Name

If the name is Jesus, everything is in that name.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

His name is the source of our salvation, the hope of our hearts.  

His name can break sin’s bondage and cool the fevered brow.  

His name can lift the greatest burdens and comfort the broken heart.  

His name unlocks the door of heaven and closes the gates of Hell.  His name saves the vilest sinner; redeems the blackest soul and secures the precious saints.  

His name is a name worth knowing because it speaks of a Savior worth loving. His name is Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

“Jesus, Jesus, Jesus — there’s just something about that name. — Master, Savior, Jesus! — Like the fragrance after the rain. — Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! — Let all Heaven and earth proclaim.  — Kings and Kingdoms will all pass away, — but there’s something about that Name!”
