JUNE 29
A NAME ABOVE EVERY NAME

Scripture:  Philippians 2:9-11 “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

     “God has highly honored Christ. God has given Christ a name above every name. Right now, the name of Jesus Christ is cursed all over the world. In fact, at every passing tick of the clock, the name of Jesus Christ is being cursed thousands of times by hordes of people all over the world. But note: not everyone curses His name. Some of us love His name. To us His name is the most glorious name every uttered by human voice, for His name is the name that forgives our sins. "And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations" (Luke 24:47).
    It’s the name that gives us access into God's presence.  "And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full" (John 16:23-24).  (Preacher's Outline and Sermon Bible – Commentary)
     He has taught us how to live, and showed us how to give.  He has redeemed us, been our constant Friend, lifted us out of the mire and sin and set our feet on a solid Rock!  He has done for us what no one else could ever do!  Oh what a Savior is mine!  The precious name of Jesus should always cause us to rejoice and bow to worship!  So many today treat Him like dirt!  They don’t want anything to do with Him!  They don’t want His sacrifice and will not accept His forgiveness!  But there will come a day when every knee shall bow at His name and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord!  Oh my friend, do you know Him as your personal Lord and Savior today?
