Isn’t the Name
Names are important, aren’t they? We took great care in choosing the names of our three children because we know how much names matter. In the Bible, Jesus often changed people’s names after He changed their lives. Abram became Abraham. Saul became Paul. Simon became Peter.
Names matter to Jesus. Your name matters to Jesus.
Your name tells the story of who you are. Your name makes you unique. Your name defines your destiny.
But there is one name that is greater than any other name. His name.
It’s in His name alone where we find freedom. It’s in His name where we find healing. It’s in His name where we find salvation.
Over and over again, Scripture magnifies the name of Jesus.
Acts 4:12 (ESV) says, “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
Philippians 2:9-11 (ESV) declares, “Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
In John 14:13 (ESV), Jesus tells us, “Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.”
The beautiful name of Jesus eclipses every other name, for His is the only name that holds the power to remove all of our sins.
As we wrote the lyrics for our song, “Isn’t the Name,” we simply wanted to acknowledge the power that resides in the name of Jesus: “Eternal King, You will reign forever / And we will sing the glories of Your name / Be lifted high, so all the world will see / Your name is all we need. Your name is all we need.”
This week, no matter what names other people give you and no matter what names you give yourself, remember that the only name that defines you is the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus, you can be forgiven, and your life can be made new.
His name is the only one that matters.
