    In JESUS Name

    We are to pray in JESUS name. But what has more power than HIS name? and how do we put it to work in our lives?

    Can you say?

    I think Faith is the answer you are looking for?

    I`m not sure I agree with the answer tho...

    and I think the question could put you in the doghouse...:shock:

    But i`ve gone past tired, so I best leave the thinking to someone who`s awake...

    Curiouser and curiouser!

    ROFL Maybe I'll leave off answering till tomorrow.
    Hint though. "GOD did not create the world by HIS name."

    I wonder if asking which one has "more power" his word (the scriptures) or his name is a bit of a false dichotomy?

    If indeed it is the word (scripture) you're referring to or maybe The Word (person of Jesus).

    I'm not sure, like Coconut, i'm a tad confused.

    His name is about authority.

    Psalm 138:2 HE magnified HIS WORD above HIS NAME....

    Magnified means HE gave it more authority.

    LOL Nope. Just getting you digging. GOD created the world by HIS WORD. Not by invoking JESUS' name. We take dominion in the Earth by speaking HIS Word by HIS authority. Thus we say "In JESUS name" Or translated..."By/in the authority JESUS has given me."

    If I pray over you to see you healed, I say "By JESUS stripes you are healed" I speak HIS WORD "In JESUS name"
    ¿Entiendes?
