Coffee Time with Jesus

  • Jesus: The Name Above Every Name
    Therefore, God also has highly exalted Him
    and given Him the name which is above every name.
    Philippians 2:9
     
    The name of Jesus is the Name Above Every Name. It is more excellent than that of Adam, the first man, because Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. Jesus’ name is more excellent than that of Noah, who saved his family from the flood, because Jesus came to save the world. Jesus’ name is more excellent than that of Abraham, the friend of God, because Jesus is God’s Son. Jesus’ name is more excellent than that of Moses, who delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt, because Jesus’ name is powerful to deliver any from addictive slavery to sin. Jesus’ name is more excellent than that of any leader who defeated Israel’s enemies, because Jesus defeated sin, lust and the devil on the cross. What has Jesus done for you?
     
    Lord, when I’m in trouble, I whisper, “Jesus.” When I want to break a habit or overcome an enemy, I say, “Jesus.” When I need anything, I pray, “Jesus.”
     
    The name of Jesus is greater than that of every Old Testament prophet, priest or king, because Jesus was the focus of their ministry. The name of Jesus is greater than that of every apostle, including Paul, because Jesus called them, empowered them, commissioned them and used them. What Jesus has done for these people, He can do for you.
     
    Jesus, Your name is sweet to me, for it saved me from sin. Your name is powerful to me, for it gives me strength and hope. Your name is above every name. Amen.

    The name of Jesus is above every name on Earth.
