Open
Heaven 23 December 2021 TOPIC: The Name
that Saves
MEMORISE:- The name of the
LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. Proverbs 18:10
READ: Matthew 1:20-21 (KJV)
20. But while he thought on these things, behold,
the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of
David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in
her is of the Holy Ghost.
21. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 37:1-21, Jeremiah 38:1-28,
Jeremiah 39:1-18, Jeremiah 40:1-16, Jeremiah 41:1-18

MESSAGE:
The memory verse of today declares the omnipotent nature of
the name of the Lord. In the same verse lies an eternal truth: it says only the
righteous can find safety in the name of the Lord.

Bad Success
This
same Bible however, tells us that none is righteous (Romans 3:10).
How then can we access the saving power in the name of the Lord? We find the
answer in our Bible reading of today.
It
says the way out of sin is through the name of Jesus Christ. This name is
all-powerful, mighty to save from sin, sickness, poverty, demonic attack and
death.
Praise
the Lord! The Bible predicts a lot of calamities as we approach the second
coming of the Lord. Joel 2:30-31 prophesied that the
Lord will..shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and
pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into
blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.

Prophet
Isaiah also spoke of the terrible things that would happen as we come closer to
the end of the world (Isaiah 13:9). Beloved, the only way we
can escape the end time calamities is through the name of Jesus.
The
name would however only work for you if you have accepted Jesus Christ as your
personal Lord and Saviour. To do this, you must acknowledge your sins, confess
and repent of them.
Thereafter,
begin to put your trust in this name which Philippians 2:9-11 describes
as: “..a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus
every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things
under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord, to the glory of God the Father”
Thus,
it is your responsibility to cry to Jesus for mercy. Use the name of Jesus
effectively as you begin to live a life of holiness and perfect obedience to
God. By so doing, you would avoid being a victim of the terrible happenings in
these last days.
Our
God is full of tender mercies and loving kindness (Psalms 103:4). He
says in Joel 2:32 “And it shall come to pass, that
whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered…” Call
on Him today and be saved.
Open Heaven 23 December 2021 KEY POINT:
