How to Find Strength in the All-Powerful Name of Jesus
The events of this week hang heavy on my heart. As I watch the news coverage, I wish I could just press a permanent pause button on the wickedness in this world.
Jesus, help us!
This simple prayer was the cry of my heart this week. My soul longed for Jesus to come down and make it all better.
When life makes no sense, the only solution is to seek the One who suffered more than I will ever understand to save this world from sin.
Jesus knows how to turn things around and transform darkness into light.
When sin is great, Christ’s love is greater. His name speaks life and peace louder than any other voice.
The name of Jesus is All Powerful.
This week I have found comfort in 5 names of my death-defeating Savior.
How Find Strength in the Name of Jesus
Redeemer
Jesus is a rescuer, and He wars for us when we are in need of ransom. He longs to flood all the dark spaces of our lives with His light and love. (Job 19:25, Isaiah 59:20; Colossians 1:13-14)
Cornerstone
No matter how unstable this world gets, Jesus is a bedrock foundation under our feet. We stand secure in Christ. (Psalm 118:22, I Peter 2:4-8)
Prince of Peace
In the midst of chaos, Jesus speaks peace over our lives. As we press into His presence, He will calm the storm within us as the battle rages without. (Isaiah 9:6; Ephesians 2:14)
Immanuel
God is with us. He is intimately involved in every aspect of our lives. The Spirit of the Resurrected Christ indwells us and is at work. His wonderful plan for us cannot be thwarted by wicked schemes. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23)
Faithful and True
Jesus will keep His promises. He is a warrior who fights for us and will fully defeat all wickedness one glorious day. (Psalm 33:4; Revelation 19:11)
As we talk with our neighbors and co-workers about difficult events during dark times, let’s remember to bring Jesus into the conversation. Let’s tell them about the Savior who embodies the hope and help they are desperately seeking.
Find strength by fixing your thoughts on the all-powerful name of Jesus.
