Message
We are all aware that there is power through prayer. God, and men of God in Bible times affirmed so. “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16). The writer illustrated the statement with the story of Elijah, a man who prayed and shut the heavens and there was no rain. He prayed again and opened the heavens and rain fell down. That was the power of private, personal, and individual prayer. In the New Testament, the focus shifts from an individual to the Church, the body of Christ.

The name of Jesus was chosen even before He was born. And His name is symbolic.
It is a name that signifies His office, His ministry and His authority. There is power in His name. Through the name of Jesus, prayers are answered, sicknesses and diseases are healed, demons are cast out, problems are solved, and victory over sin, fears and failures are received. One day, at the mention of that name, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord. Faith in the name of Jesus is the password you need for your miracles. Believe!
