Read:
Philippians 2:9-11

Message

In today's Bible reading, we are made to understand that at the name of Jesus, all knees should bow. This means that you can take total control of any situation by using the name of Jesus. In 1 Samuel 17:42-51, David said to Goliath, "You have come with all these weapons, but I come against you in the name of the Lord of Host" By the time the battle was over, Goliath had lost his head.

There is so much power in the name of Jesus. If you ask for anything in His name, you will see it happen because John 14:14 says:

If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Several years ago, I travelled from Ibadan, a city in Western Nigeria, to Ilorin, another city in the same region. On the way, there was a narrow bridge that could only take one vehicle at a time. As we approached the bridge, there was a sign that read, 'narrow bridge ahead' to warn drivers to reduce the speed of their vehicles because if another vehicle was coming from the other side of the bridge, they would have to wait for it to drive by before getting on the bridge. We were already on the bridge when we saw a truck coming from the other side of the bridge at top speed. We didn't know if the driver didn't see us or if he just couldn't stop; a head-on collision seemed unavoidable. There was no time to pray, but there was just enough time to shout the name of Jesus: My driver and I shouted the name, "JESUS." We somehow passed the truck in the middle of the bridge, and when we got off the bridge, my driver was trembling so vigorously that he had to park the car immediately, in the back of the car where I was seated, I was trembling even more than he was. By the time he composed himself; he asked, "Daddy, what just happened?" I replied, "God expanded the bridge." For the rest of the journey, he just kept repeating, "Wonderful!"

Beloved, at the mention of the name of Jesus; wonderful things happen. Therefore, when next you find yourself in a situation that needs to be brought under control, just shout the name of Jesus, and every force will submit to His authority.

King James Version

Philippians 2:9-11

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
RCCG Hymn

All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!

  1. All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!
    Let angels prostrate fall;
    Bring forth the royal diadem,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
  2. Crown Him, ye martyrs of our God,
    Who from His altar call;
    Extol the stem of Jesse's rod,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
  3. Ye chosen seed of Israel's race,
    A remnant weak and small,
    Hail Him who saves you by His grace.
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Heav'n is hll'd with joyful noises
    How delightful their worship.
  4. f Let us join with the heav'nly throng,
    Ye Gentile sinners, ne'er forget
    The wormwood and the gall;
    Go, spread your trophies at His feet.
    And crown Him Lord of all.
  5. Let every kindred, every tribe.
    On this terrestrial ball.
    To Him all majesty ascribe.
    And crown Him Lord of all.
  6. O that with yonder sacred throng
    We at His feet may fall.
    Join in the everlasting song,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
