The Name Above All Names

Greetings

Today I am in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bonnie and I have been spending several days with our children and grandchildren. It is great being with family. We have been working on their new house and enjoying time together in a rich and wonderful way. It will be hard to leave and I will look forward to coming again soon. I will be off in a few days to New Mexico, but then back for a couple of days before I head out again.

Isaiah 2:3 Many people shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Wherever God’s presence rests, His presence subdues. His presence changes everything in our lives and even in the environment around us. The name of Jesus is higher than any other name. He is salvation in every situation. We are the place God lives. He rests in our lives. When God rests in our lives the beliefs of our hearts change. When the beliefs of our hearts change, the actions of our lives change. We choose a different path of walking. When we choose a different path of walking, a different way of doing things in our lives, we end up entertaining different imaginations in our hearts. The strongholds of our hearts end up being strongholds of God’s love and the empowering transformations of the imaginations of our minds. When our imaginations change we envision a world around us that is empowered and transformed by our Father’s will in heaven. We end up seeing things as they are in heaven, thus we end up influencing the world around us by heaven’s grace. We become testimonies of the word of God. The expressions of God become the expressions of our lives. We become the embodiment of the word of God that influences our world in heavenly ways. We prove that there is no gap between us and God and the world around us becomes influenced by the power of Christ in us. By these things we testify that as blessings we live to be blessings in our world. We seek to give greater value to those things that are beyond our lives. We live to multiply and not merely add blessings to our own lives. We see ourselves as significant for the sake of others, not merely living for our own success in life. The result is a multigenerational influence that transforms the word beyond our lives. This is how we discover the reason for which we were born. We were born for the generations of our family name. Our family name is nothing less than the name of Jesus and the testimony of Christ in all things.

Isaiah 2:2 Now it shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.

When we lose our lives in Christ, we actually find them. God doesn’t want us to lose our life, He wants us to finally really find it. When we lay our false lives down, we find our true lives in Christ. The latter days and nothing more than the loss of what is false to finally find what is true. My last day was forty-five years ago when I invited Christ into my heart. It was that the I began to discover the presence of God in my life. The name of Jesus has continually proven to be greater than any other name in my life. His name is above every name that is less than life that has tried to rob me of my true life that can only be found in Christ. All the other high places in my heart are transformed by the name that is above all names. I find my identity in Christ because of the power of Jesus name. His name is above all other names and His name is the name that presides in the house of God in heaven and upon the earth.

Psalms 148:13 Let them praise the name of the Lord, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven. 14 And He has exalted the horn of His people, the praise of all His saints—of the children of Israel, a people near to Him. Praise the Lord! 

Ephesians 1:19 …and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

It is a wonderful thing to be a part of the house of the Lord. His name will fill every aspect of our lives and we can know increasing life for all the days of our lives. The name of Jesus is above all other names and we are part of that family name.

Blessings,
