The Name Of Jesus

Many  deny the deity of Jesus even though He has a name above every name.

Either in this life by salvation or in the one to come in judgment, every knee will bow and confess that Jesus is the Christ and Lord of all.

Philippians 2:9-11 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 

[10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 

[11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

There is power in the name of Jesus. We need to take it with us everywhere we go.

“Take the name of Jesus with you, — Child of sorrow and of woe; — It will joy and comfort give you, — Take it then where’er you go.

“Precious name, oh how sweet! — Hope of earth and joy of heav’n; — Precious name, oh how sweet! — Hope of earth and joy of heav’n;

“Take the name of Jesus ever — As a shield from ev’ry snare; — When temptations round you gather, — Breathe that holy name in prayer.

“Oh, the precious name of Jesus! — How it thrills our souls with joy, — When His loving arms receive us — And His songs our tongues employ.

“At the name of Jesus bowing, — Falling prostrate at His feet,
King of kings in heav’n we’ll crown Him — When our journey is complete.”
