"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2:9-11) Sometimes less is more. Today's thought may be few in words, but the words used hold more than all the words mankind has ever uttered or even thought of! There truly is no MORE—no greater name than the Name of Jesus. There is no other name by which a sin-sick soul is healed. There is no other name by which we can be saved! The Name of Jesus . . . there is no other Name which evokes such authority yet imparts such unspeakable love and mercy! The Name of Jesus . . . above all other names, above all principalities and above all powers! The Name of Jesus, that precious Name, will forever be our banner . . . in battle, in victory, in sweet retreat, in triumph! Jesus, Jesus, Jesus . . . there IS something about that Name! When doubt or fear overwhelms you, just begin to speak the Name that is above every name . . . the Name of Jesus! When we think of Jesus our thoughts should be enormous, without boundary, inexhaustible, incomprehensible, unmatchable, and unfathomable. May today's few words be the richest words you've ever read … the name of Jesus is more than enough! Amen! Jesus, Jesus, Jesus; there is something special about Your name. As my lips speak forth Your Name, my heart is overjoyed at the awareness of Your presence. Oh, how I love the Name of Jesus; it is as honey on my lips, sweet, pure, and nourishing to my soul. May my mouth ever show forth Thy praise and my heart sing of Thy goodness today and every day, Jesus. Amen! "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 given this complete healing to him, as you can all see." (Acts 3:16 NIV) © Jan Ross
