In this part of the video, the speaker invites the audience to open their Bibles to three passages: Hebrews 1, Philippians 2, and Ephesians 1. They read and discuss these passages, emphasizing the significance and authority of Jesus’ name. The speaker highlights the idea that Jesus’ name carries tremendous power and authority, which believers are given the right to use, equivalent to having the power of attorney. They reference E.W. Kenyon’s book “The Wonderful Name of Jesus” and recite passages from it to further illustrate their point. The speaker underlines the importance of understanding and utilizing Jesus’ name in prayer, dealing with demons, and ministering healing, asserting that many prayers fail because they are not made in Jesus’ name.

In this segment of the video, the speaker emphasizes the significance of praying in Jesus’ name, highlighting that Jesus guarantees such prayers will receive God’s attention. He criticizes how religious interpretations have diluted the promises of God by adding conditional elements that Jesus did not mention, particularly the notion of “if it’s His will.” He asserts that God’s will is clear and that unanswered prayers are often due to not following the Word correctly.

The speaker shares his personal testimony of being born again and recounts learning the principles of prayer and using Jesus’ name during a prolonged illness. He explains that an individual’s will and faith are crucial in prayer outcomes, stressing that no one can impose their will through prayer on another person.

He clarifies that praying for personal needs in Jesus’ name should always result in a “yes” if done correctly, contrary to the belief that God sometimes says “no” or “wait.” He argues that believers have the legal right to use Jesus’ name in prayer, making it a business-like transaction where Jesus takes responsibility for the prayer once it is made in His name.

Additionally, the speaker explains that Jesus’ authority, granted by God, extends to believers, enabling them to perform signs such as casting out demons, speaking in tongues, and healing the sick. He concludes by referring to the Great Commission in the Gospels, underscoring that Jesus’ authority encompasses heaven and earth, reinforcing the power believers have in His name.

In this segment, the discussion centers on the authority given to Jesus and subsequently to the church. It highlights that Jesus declared all authority in heaven and on Earth had been given to Him, and He then authorized His followers to go forth in His name. A minister recounts struggling with sickness and mental depression, assuming it was up to God to act. The realization came that it is also up to individuals to exercise their given authority. Jesus empowers His followers to make disciples of all nations and is always with them, particularly when two or three gather in His name and agree on what they ask for, as their requests will be granted by God. The name of Jesus holds significant power and authority, inherited, conferred by God, and earned through His deeds, which believers are authorized to wield.

In this part of the video, the speaker emphasizes the power and significance of Jesus’ name, suggesting that it holds immense potential beyond human understanding. They recount a story where invoking Jesus’ name seemingly prevented a car accident, illustrating the name’s protective power. The speaker explains that Jesus has given believers a metaphorical “signed check” on the resources of heaven, which they are encouraged to “fill out” with requests and needs, but many limit themselves due to a small vision of Jesus and His name. The speaker criticizes how some Christians live on a lower spiritual level, often speaking more about the devil’s deeds than Jesus’ power. They advocate for a more profound respect and understanding of Jesus’ name, urging an extensive study of its resources to fully grasp its wealth and potential for the church. The speaker also delves into the theological aspect, explaining how Jesus inherited His name, stressing it was through His actions and sacrifice on Earth, not in heaven before His incarnation.

In this segment, the speaker discusses the concept of when Jesus was “begotten” according to Scripture. They clarify that Jesus was not begotten when He was born as a baby, as He pre-existed with the Father and took on a human body. The term “begotten” is explained to mean “born,” but not in the physical sense. The speaker connects this to the resurrection, indicating that Jesus was begotten when God raised Him from the dead, thus fulfilling the prophecy. They delve into the idea of spiritual death, emphasizing that it refers to being separated from God rather than the cessation of life. By dying on the cross, Jesus tasted spiritual death for humanity’s sins, thereby becoming separated from God temporarily. This act satisfied divine justice, leading to His resurrection, and God declaring Him His begotten Son on that day. The speaker underscores that this resurrection and begetting of Jesus is central to understanding His authority and the significance of His name.

In this part of the video, the speaker elaborates on the significance of Jesus’ name and authority. They reference biblical passages from Ephesians, Colossians, and Corinthians to underscore the belief in Jesus’ supreme power over all beings, both spiritual and earthly. The main points include the inheritance of Jesus’ name, his power over principalities and powers, and the importance of believers understanding and utilizing this authority. The speaker emphasizes that Jesus’ name was earned through his resurrection and conquests, and this authority is conferred upon believers. The speaker concludes by encouraging believers to embrace and use this name to overcome the power of darkness and Satan.

In this segment, the speaker emphasizes the authority and power in the name of Jesus. He highlights that Jesus has already dethroned the rulers of this world, and believers should recognize their authority over demons, sickness, and other evils. He shares a personal anecdote about overcoming a headache by invoking Jesus’ name, illustrating the practical application of this authority. The speaker advocates for a mature understanding of this spiritual truth, encouraging believers to internalize scriptures until they become part of their consciousness. He concludes with the importance of realizing and declaring the power in Jesus’ name over all adversities.
