Theme
Thinking about the Name,
"JESUS", will heal, restore, make right everything. The name
Jesus is the greatest word,
the greatest name in the entire world!!!! The name
"Jesus" has
power in it. The name
"Jesus" connects you to Almighty God and heals.......
Sermon
Think upon, meditate on the name of
"Jesus". Think upon the name of
"Jesus" in the Bible, the Son of God. Think,
"Jesus"......... think
"Jesus".... This is
the greatest name in the world. This name is above every other name in the world, when you think about Jesus, who died on the cross and rose again so we may be filled with the mighty spirit of God himself!! The Holy Spirit. That part of your mind becomes what Jesus is.
The name
"Jesus" is holy, perfect. The name,
"Jesus" when meditated on, thought about, heals,
everything: That is intended for Godly, holy purposes.
The name
"Jesus" restores life for a sanctified, holy life that is pure without sin before God., it is the purest name/word in entire world.......
Philippians 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
Acts 3:16 By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.
1 Corinthians 1:2 ...............to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours:
Now if you ask God for something that is
worldly, the name of "Jesus"
will not help you.
"Jesus" name does
the will of His father. You want to be
a farmer? Good,... so does God,...... you want to be
a mother? staying home and raising your children?, or a father? having children and
raising them to be honest, pure, holy and clean before God; to be servants of Christ? Good,..... so does God. "Jesus" name brings
wholesomeness, purity, holiness, honesty. God is the
God of nature. So thinking on and meditating on the name,
"Jesus" will produce natural affects, things pertaining to nature. Some things are unnatural, sleeping with someone outside of marriage is unnatural, so is homosexuality. Cars are unnatural, you need to be praying for a horse. You need food?
"Jesus" name will produce a great crop in your fields.
This is why many prayers are unanswered: People are
friends with worldly people, people want what greedy, lustful people want,......people do the same things that the unsaved do.......... This makes you God's enemy. For the world is God's enemy.
James 4
3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
4 You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity
(enmityen·mi·ty [en-mi-tee]: a feeling or condition of hostility; hatred; ill will; animosity; antagonism.),
against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us ? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
“God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble.”
7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
James 1: 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
God of nature: Declaration of Independence a very Holy undertaking, a very holy document.
When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
