We pray in Jesus' name at the end of prayers. So what does it mean? Does it mean that whenever I pray and then at the end of my prayer, if I say "In Jesus' name" then it is done? Literally yes in black and white. However, after days and nights I was annoyed by speaking like this at the end of prayer. I felt like I was dried out. It was just like those one of the religious practices in Chinese culture. I am not satisfied with what is provided in black and white. I told Jesus that I am tired of doing this cuz I felt that it is just being too religious if it is not from my heart. Finally I have got the answer in the days of wilderness and walking with God in the days of unknown. In the name of Jesus'...
What is a person? Can we say that there is a "person" on a dead body? So what is a person? A person is like a word. A word has two characters, one is the signifier and the other is what is signified. A signifier is "In Jesus' name" but what is signified in "In Jesus' name"? For example, the word "cat", cat is a signifier, c.a.t. but what is signified in "cat"? It is cute, an animal, fluffy, gentle and naughty sometimes. Yes, you have got it.
"In the name of Jesus'" is a signifier, what is signified is the meaning inside. Yes, who that person is, Jesus. That brings deliverance, that brings power, that brings miracle and salvation. If you know who He is then you will know the meaning and the power of "In the name of Jesus'" otherwise, you will dry up. "If you know the word only you will dry up, if you know the holy spirit only, you will blow up, if you know both of them you will grow up." Seek the holy spirit for the holy spirit is God the Father and God the Son. For the Son of God is God the Father and the Holy Spirit. The Bible said that they are in One. All the Father is and has, He has invested in the name of Jesus.
(Thank you for the days in the wilderness that you teach me and reveal me the sacred things)
So, "In the name of Jesus'" is the presence of the Trinity, God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. What devil, what sickness, what bondage can stay if we truly know the meaning of "Jesus"?
However, how miserable we are. We ask and seek yet we couldn't find it. I have got the answer because I suffered from this. It just made you so worn out and then wanted to died in asking and seeking. You just want to give up and ask no more. At last, you will say this in your prayer as your final prayer, "Jesus, I ask and seek but I couldn't get into you. I just don't know who you are, what "love" is for you said that you are "love". Yet, I just don't know you and feel like I am not with you at all. When people asked me, I can tell them what you did and what the Bible describes about you. Yet, frankly speaking, from my heart and spirit, I just don't knwo who you are at all."
There are many "Joshua, Yehawe" in History. But they don't carry the truth. Seek not the name but what is behind. The deity, the humanity as saviour, the sinlessness (the holy lamb of God), the anointing, the achievement, the inheritance, the glory.
It is only allowed to be used by God's children but not the sinners. The sinners can use it once only, yes once only think about it. The sinners can use it in times of repentence. After that, God's children can use it freely. Yet, remember it is only being allowed to be used by God's children. So, am I God's child? Are you? Yes? Congratulations, No? then you can use the only once. You are not sure? Just whisper and ask.
It is ours forever, "In the name of Jesus'".
That is, you even don't have to say "In the name of Jesus' I pray, Amen" Yes, you even don't have to say that. You may whisper to Jesus on the way home or in a crowd but in your heart you are alone with Him. He is just waiting for your last breathe and take the most pure heart to Him.
How often, I still want to hold on in my fresh that kills my soul. I really want to know "In Jesus' name" fully cuz I am so tired also, just as many of the souls out there too.
