Bible Scripture On Power In The Name Of Jesus

Dear friends, the name of Jesus Christ holds incredible power and authority. As Philippians 2 tells us, God has highly exalted His name above all others. When we call upon the name of Jesus, we tap into the supernatural power of the risen Christ.

Throughout the book of Acts, we see the early apostles performing remarkable miracles of healing and deliverance in Jesus’ name. People who were lame could suddenly walk. The depressed received joy. Demonic spirits were cast out. Even the shadow of Peter brought healing because he represented the power of Christ.

The Bible makes clear that there is salvation in no other name except Jesus. He is the way, the truth and the life. All who call upon His name and believe in Him will be saved from sin and death. This mighty name holds the power to transform lives.

When we pray in Jesus’ name, we can come boldly before God’s throne of grace. As John 15 assures us, if we ask anything in His name, the Father will give it to us. Even preaching the gospel is to be done in His name, bringing redemption to all who believe.

Dear friends, now let’s see the Bible scriptures below that talk about the authority we have through Jesus’ powerful name.
