The Power in the Name of Jesus 

 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Philippians 2:10

We know very well that the name of Jesus is above all things here on Earth and in Heaven, but do we believe in his name? When you know something is different from when you believe in it; absolutely not the same. We know that by the name of Jesus Christ the dead will be risen, but do we have faith in the name to raise the dead? This is a very big question to us Christians. The Scripture clarified it that when we believe in his name we have life.   John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.This life in us works miracle. To know that Christ is the son of God or to know his name works wonders doesn't assure you life in him until you believe in his name which is the faith you have in him. The scripture made us to understand that by the mention of his name all things in heaven and the Earth will bow; when some call the name of Jesus Christ in troubles; they call him in fear. Such is not expected from a Child of God who believes in his name. When we have life in the name of Christ we can call upon him with boldness without trembling in the presence of any evil around us.

Remember the seven sons of sceva who went about looking for one who is possessed by a demon thinking that when they call on the name of Jesus Christ the demon will leave but were disgraced by the demon; because they had not life in Christ. They know well the power in his name but they don’t believe in him.

Conclusion:

We should know that there are differences between: believing in Jesus Name and Knowing what Jesus Name can do; we are to build our faith to believing in the efficacy of his name (1John 3:23a)
