The All-Encompassing Name
Study The Word
Matthew 28:18-19
And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Let’s take a look at the magnitude of what Jesus declared here. All power in heaven and on earth is given to Him! Not some power, but ALL power! Hallelujah! And then, He gives a mighty commission: “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them…” What does that word baptizing truly mean in this context? It’s baptizo, which means to dip into, to put into. So, Jesus is saying, “Go and put them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” Now, here’s the revelation that will solidify your faith: What is the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? It is JESUS CHRIST! Think about it, when Philip asked Jesus to show them the Father, Jesus responded, “Have I been so long a time with you, and yet have you not known me, Philip? He that has seen me has seen the Father.” If you’ve seen Jesus, you’ve seen the Father! Glory to God!
βαπτίζω baptizō baptizing – to immerse into, to submerge, dip into, sink into
The fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily in Jesus Christ. So, when you declare the name Jesus Christ, you are uttering the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! The fullness of the Godhead! What a glorious truth. So now, that means the Holy Spirit Himself responds and answers to the name of Jesus! When you ask in Jesus’ name, the Holy Spirit goes into action, performing the work! This is why that name is “above every name, and at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow!” Use the name of Jesus, don’t keep quiet; even if you say “Shingi, I’ve used it before, nothing happened, it didn’t work.” Who told you it didn’t work? The name always works, ALWAYS! It’s just that you have preconceived ideas of how you want it to work, and when it doesn’t work the way you want it to in ignorance of spiritual things, you drop your head, quit and say, “aah, it didn’t work.” I’ve got news for you, it always works; Jesus would never lie. It always works, just keep doing it, don’t stop.
ὄνομα onoma name – name, authority, character
The problem is you want to walk by sight and want to see it work by your sight and your senses and your sight before you say it worked; that is the problem. But you were called not to walk there, as a child of God; you were called to “walk by faith and not by sight!” So keep doing it until you get the results, don’t stop, never quit. Keep saying, “In the name of Jesus Christ!!!” Until there’s a discharge of the power from your spirit; you will know it. Those of you who have done this before, you know what I’m talking about. You don’t quit; we don’t give in; no, never, we are a victor by the power of the name of Jesus Christ! Always victorious. Recognize the power, the all-encompassing authority in that glorious name of the Lord Jesus Christ! John 14:12 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”
Hallelujah! Did you catch that? Jesus said, “The works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do!” He’s talking about you, child of God! This isn’t just for apostles or select ministers; this is for everyone who believes in Him. The Bible tells us how “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and He “went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.” Jesus was doing good and healing, anointed with the Holy Spirit! And now, He says you will do the works He did, and even greater works, because He’s gone to the Father. So, if Jesus was a healer, what does that make you, who believes in Him and is empowered by the same Spirit? You are also a healer! Yes, you! When they talk about pandemics, viruses, and all these sicknesses and diseases, understand this: To the child of God, to the believer in Jesus, you are the healer! You are not the one to get infected! Why would I need a vaccine when Jesus said, “Greater works than these shall he do?” This isn’t arrogance; it’s revelation, it’s truth. There are more viruses coming, more pandemics coming, Jesus already told us so; but He left us with more than enough to destroy every virus, every pandemic, every disease! Which is being filled with the Holy Spirit! Speaking the Word of God, speaking in tongues, singing a spiritual song making melody in our hearts! Using the name of Jesus, going everywhere healing the sick, casting out devils and raising the dead! It’s our destiny, it’s our time now.
Pray The Word
Father, I thank You for anointing Jesus Christ with the Holy Spirit and power to do good and heal all. And thank You Father, for empowering me also with the same Spirit and the same anointing and authority in Your Name, the name of Jesus Christ to do the works He did, and greater works. Heavenly Father, I thank You for the revelation of Your Name, Jesus Christ, and that all power in heaven and on earth is in Your Name. Thank You for giving me access to this power everyday, in Jesus name, amen.
Speak The Word
I am a healer, just like Jesus! Therefore, sickness, disease, and viruses have no power over me. I operate in the anointing and power of the Holy Spirit to do good and to heal all, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ! I declare that the Name of Jesus Christ is above every name! As I speak the Name of Jesus today, the Holy Spirit goes into action! Being one that has been dipped into Christ through the new birth, I live by the power and authority of the all-encompassing Name of Jesus!
