Praying In The Name Of Jesus Part 2

Jesus is here in spirit, so when you use His name He acts and does it. You allow Jesus to live and act through you when you use His name. You have to believe that when you use the name of Jesus you will see results. Jesus needed a body to operate here on earth, to do what needed to be done to overcome the world and represent the Father. He came to undo the works of the enemy, and set people free by giving them eternal life. At His time, He could only be at one place at one time, since He had one body. Today, He still continues His work here on earth through His body, the church. This He does when we use His name. From the start to the end, we live in Jesus’ name. The name of Jesus is what we got saved by, and is what we live by. We got salvation through the name of Jesus; everything else we get from the Father will also be in His name, throughout our walk with Him.

Praying In The Name Of Jesus

Have you ever wondered why we always pray in the name of Jesus? Ever wondered what impact this has? I have.

And in all your getting, get understanding. Wisdom is Christ, and so is understanding (Proverbs 8:14). Wisdom and understanding begin when you accept Christ. Before, when we were unbelievers, our understanding was darkened and so were our minds: Ephesians 5:17-18 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futilit

Prayer with Results Part 2

Time has come that you may know that signs and wonders will follow those who believe. Time has come for us when we call upon the Lord we be sure that He has answered. We are a people who will see fruitfulness and see results for every prayer we make. We continue from where we left last week, on answering the question , "h ow can you be that person who prays prayers that bears fruits?" We started by saying that we have to know according to the will of God when praying, and be careful when praying, taking time to know how God wants you to pray. Let us not be hasty making prayers without knowing how to pray. Know what is in the mind of God regarding what you are praying about. In the days of ignorance, God overlooked (Acts 17:30). Now that we know what prayer is, we will pray accordingly, according to the word of God. The will of God is in His word. When praying for someone to be healed, instead of using many words, just pray like: "I declare that the stripes of Jesus
