Pastor Joel Scrivner
About This Sermon
n this powerful message, we're reminded of the incredible authority we have through the name of Jesus. The central theme revolves around Philippians 2:9-11, which declares Jesus' name as above all names. We learn that this name isn't just a magical phrase to tack onto our prayers, but a profound revelation of Christ's character and authority that He's graciously shared with us. As believers, we're called to step into this authority, not through our own merit, but through our relationship with Jesus. The speaker draws an intriguing parallel between this spiritual authority and a credit card, illustrating how we can 'transact business' in the heavenly realms using Jesus' name. This message challenges us to deepen our obedience and intimacy with Christ, as our authority grows in proportion to these aspects of our relationship with Him. It's a call to live boldly, expecting greater works and miracles in our lives as we fully embrace the power of Jesus' name.
