Power in the Name

5/29/2020
John 16:26-27 “At that day ye shall ask in My name…The Father Himself loveth you.”

Jesus is the bridge between God and Man; He is our one connection to the Father through the Holy Spirit. When we come to God praying in Jesus’ name, the Father will hear us and answer. Chambers writes that we should not invoke Jesus’ name as a magic word, but rather a word of intimate relationship. It is given to us through a profound sacrifice of love wrapped in grace. Along with prayer, however, we must also seek wisdom through listening to and reading God’s word, for in it lies all we need.

I take profound solace in the power of prayer and the mercy of my Savior, because we are currently experiencing disease, unrest, hatred, and violence in our country, and it feels as though it is all coming to a head. So for my 150th blog post, I am going to make a single request; join me in praying to our Heavenly Father in Jesus’ name to heal our nation, and turn a hurting people back to Him.

 In John chapter 16:33, Jesus tells his disciples that He has overcome the world, and through Him we can find peace. Let us seek peace though Him together, and love others with our every word and action. Amen and Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, In Jesus' name please heal our nation and turn all those hurting back to you especially those in our family and amongst our friends who have lost their way and are yearning for your healing touch.
Restore peace in the hearts of all of those suffering. AMEN
