God’s power is immeasurable—and every bit of it is in His Name!
That’s shouting ground right there, but it’s not the whole story. According to Romans 8:17, you and I, as believers, are “heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ,” so that Name belongs to us just as much as it belongs to Jesus. It belongs to every born-again child of God because, as the Apostle Paul said, it’s the Name “of whom the whole family [of God] in heaven and earth is named” (Ephesians 3:15).
This is the reason the Church is referred to in Scripture as the bride of Christ. We’ve been covenanted to Him in a holy matrimony before God Almighty and, just as a bride takes the name of her husband in an earthly marriage, we’ve been given Jesus’ Name.
Most Christians haven’t fully grasped this yet. They might have a little revelation of it. They might understand that they’ve been authorized to use Jesus’ Name at certain times to do the work of God. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The truth is, we’ve not only been authorized to use His Name but we’ve been named after Him.
His Name is our name!
We have as much right to it as my wife, Gloria, has to the name Copeland. She doesn’t have any qualms about using that name. She wields it with the same authority and confidence that I do. She can write it on a check, take it to the tellers at the bank, and they’ll smile and give her every last dime in my account. Why? It’s her name and her account as much as it is mine.
The Devil Can’t Tell the Difference
The authority that’s been invested in us as believers is beyond our wildest imaginations. Because we have God’s Name, we not only have the right to speak for God, we have the right to speak by His grace as God. In fact, when we speak His Word by faith the devil can’t tell the difference between us and God Himself.
