This is message 33 in The Power of God's Name Revelation 2:1-7 True labor for the Lord is not measured by activity or endurance alone but by love for Christ that fuels every act of service. It is possible to be busy, steadfast, and even doctrinally sound while the heart drifts from devotion to Him. The work He desires is labor that flows from worship, not obligation, and a commitment that remains warms and personal, not cold and mechanical. To labor His name is to serve with love at the center, bringing glory to Him and finding joy in the One who first loved us.

It is not hard to understand that we brought nothing into this world. We arrived with nothing but our naked souls. But it is very difficult to understand that we take nothing out when we leave this world, we will have a clearer understanding about everything. We will certainly know what we should have invested in while we had the time to do it. Let us determine to have as few regrets as possible one minute after death.

This is message 32 in The Power of God's Name Psalm 52:1-9 Trusting in the name of the Lord means choosing to wait on who He is rather than rushing to act in our own strength, because it declares that God's justice, goodness, and timing are enough. Even when evil seems to prosper and circumstances press hard, His name reveals His faithful character, and resting in that truth becomes both a personal refuge and a public testimony before His people.

This is message 31 in The Power of God's Name 1 Peter 4:12-19 Suffering for the name of Christ is not strange but expected, for the world that rejected Him will also reproach those who belong to HIm. Such trials are part of God's refining work, proving faith and bringing Glory to His name. Believers are called to rejoice in sharing Christ's sufferings, to avoid shame by living holy lives, and to endure reproach with confidence that God's Spirit rests on them. Judgement begins with God's people as he purifies His church, preparing them to stand faithfully so that His name is glorified even in the midst of fiery trials.

This is message 30 in The Power of God's Name Psalm 54:1-7 True deliverance comes not from human effort but from trusting fully in who God is. To call upon His name is to rely on His power, character, and faithfulness rather than our own strength.

No promise in God's Word brings such bountiful blessings as the one act of obedience in tithing. Every Christian is one of God's stewards. God's stewards have been assigned a responsibility from the Lord, to manage God's goods as they are distributed and used in this world. We have learned that all that the Father has is at our disposal. May God help us to be wise, but even more importantly to be faithful in our stewardship.

This is message 29 in The Power of God's Name Exodus 34:1-7 God's glory is revealed not through dazzling displays but through the proclamation of His name. To proclaim His name is to declare His character, revealing His mercy, grace, patience, goodness, truth, and justice. This is not simply a title but the unveiling of who God truly is. To know His name is to know His nature, and to proclaim His name is to make Him known in truth, calling all people to worship and trust the One who is holy, merciful, and faithful.

Are you prepared for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ? His coming is certain. Our attitude toward Christ's return determines the quality of our Christian lives. Until He comes, we are to "occupy." This means there is a work to be done for Him.

This is message 26 in The Power of God's Name Psalm 124:1-8 When the enemies of God's people rise with overwhelming strength, the outcome does not rest on human alliances, wisdom, or might, but on the Lord Himself. He alone breaks the snare, halts the flood, and silences, the devourer. The same God who made heaven and earth is the unfailing help of His people, proving that no enemy is greater than His power to deliver.

This is message 25 in The Power of God's Name 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Justification is the act of God declaring a guilty sinner righteous solely on the basis of Christ's finished work. It is not earned through moral effort or religious ritual, but received by faith in the name of the Lord Jesus. His sinless life, atoning death, and victorious resurrection fully satisfy the demands of God's justice, making it possible for those once condemned to stand before Him washed, sanctified, and clothed in His righteousness. This is not a future hope but a present reality, secure and unshakable in Christ.

This is message 24 in The Power of God's Name James 5:13-16 Anointing in the name of the Lord is an act of faith that declares total surrender to God's will. It is not a mystical ritual but a recognition that life, health, and even weakness belong fully to Him. Through prayer, confession, and dependence on His power, believers acknowledge that God alone has authority over their circumstances. Whether He grants physical healing or calls them to serve through ongoing weakness, the surrendered life becomes a testimony of His sovereignty, holiness, and grace.

Stewardship is our response to God. Our faithfulness to Him is our response to His faithfulness to us. We love Him because He first loved us. We serve Him because we love Him. We yield ourselves to Him because He gave Himself to ransom our souls.

Those of us that have received Jesus Christ as our Saviour have received the gospel. Our understanding has been opened that He died, was buried, and that He rose again the third day. We are witnesses of these things. We have received the gospel. Nothing we have to give is as powerful and life changing as the gospel.

This is message 23 in The Power of God's Name Jesus revealed the very nature of God through His obedience, sacrificial love, faithful proclamation of truth, and unwavering unity with the Father. Every word He spoke and every act He performed displayed the holiness, love, truth, and protection found in God's name. Those who belong to Him are called to continue this work, living in such a way that their lives point others to who God is and invite the world to know Him personally.

This is message 22 in The Power of God's Name Philippians 2:5-13 Christ, though fully God, chose humility, taking the form of a servant and submitting to death on the cross to fulfill the Father's will. Because of His obedience, God exalted Him and gave Him the name above every name, before which every knee will bow and every tongue confess His lordship. This truth calls all people to live in surrender to His authority, working out their salvation with reverence, knowing that God is actively shaping both the desire and the ability to accomplish His will.

Some things remain a mystery to us in the Word of God, but some things are perfectly clear to all. We are going to understand when we conclude with this passage that it is very clear to all of us that if we obey the Lord, He will give us great reward. If we disobey the Lord, it will bring great ruin.

This is message 63 in the Isaiah series. The Earth is My Footstool Isaiah 66:1-24 God declares His greatness and sovereignty by reminding us that He cannot be contained by temples or human traditions. True worship begins with a humble heart that trembles at His Word. Isaiah's final message reveals a God who will judge false religion, restore His people, establish His Kingdom, and make His glory known to all nations. His plan will not fail. The Messiah has come, He will reign, and every nation will see His power. The call is clear: worship God with sincerity, trust in His promises, and be ready for the day when His glory fills the earth.

This is message 62 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 65:18-24 The Millennial Kingdom will be a time of joy, peace, and restoration unlike anything the world has ever known. God will transform Jerusalem into a place of rejoicing, extend long life and prosperity to His people, and rule with perfect justice. Prayers will be answered before they are even spoken, the curse will be rolled back, and even nature will be at peace. But this kingdom is not only about what is coming—it is a call to prepare now. Only those who know Christ will enter, and those who have been redeemed are called to bring others with them into the joy of that everlasting reign.

This is message 21 in The Power of God's Name Genesis 4:16-5:32 The descendants of Cain built a society that advanced in culture but drifted far from God, marked by rebellion, pride, and self-sufficiency. In contrast, the line of Seth began to call upon the name of the Lord, openly declaring their dependence on Him. This contrast reveals the spiritual divide between those who live without God and those who walk in faith, showing that true hope and redemption are found only when people humbly turn to the Lord and identify themselves with Him.

Each year, business magazines list the richest people in the world. All of this may be interesting, but the real question is, "Who is rich toward God?" Nothing we earn or gather from this world can by itself ever be considered true riches. God has something else in mind when He speaks about "true riches."

This is message 61 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 65:1-16 God offers Himself freely, even to those who do not seek Him, but when pride, false worship, and stubborn hearts refuse His grace, judgement will come. While many go their own way and face ruin, God always preserves a faithful remnant who trust in Him, He will bless those who call on His name and separate them from those who reject Him. The difference is not in status or Ritual but in who truly belongs to the Lord.

This is message 60 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 64:1-12 When people stop calling on the name of the Lord, they lose the nearness of God, the power of answered prayer, and the shaping work of His hand. Isaiah cries out for mercy, not from a place of innocence, but from a deep awareness that silence toward God leads to spiritual ruin. Only when people turn back to the Lord in Faith, repentance, and dependence can they be restored, shaped and delivered.

Our God is an all-wise God. In His wisdom, He has designed our lives so that by living it properly in time, we make the greatest investment for etermity. Think of what God has done to devise such a plan for our lives. He connects "now" and "then."

This is message 59 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 63:1-19 God acts in righteousness and mercy to make His name known. He judges sin, redeems the repentant, and keeps His promises not because anyone deserves it but because He is holy, faithful, and true. Every work he performs point back to Himself, and every act of deliverance declares His glory. Even when people fail, His purpose stands. He will not be forgotten. He will make Himself an everlasting name.

This is message 58 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 61:1-11 The Spirit of the Lord brings healing, liberty, and restoration to those who are broken and bound. When Jesus read these words in the synagogue at Nazareth, He declared that this work had begun in Him. Instead of bringing the vengeance many expected, He offered grace to all who would believe. Though rejected by His own, He continued His mission to seek and to save. His invitation still stands, calling the weary and wounded to trust in the only one who can truly restore.

This is message 20 in The Power of God's Name 2 Thessalonians 3:6-15 God calls His people to walk in order and obedience under the authority of His name. When believers refuse to work, stir up strife, or reject godly instruction, it dishonors Christ and weakens the church. Paul's command is clear: work quietly, live responsibly, and continue in well-doing without giving in to weariness. When discipline is necessary, it must be carried out with love and the hope of restoration, so that the name of the Lord remains honored among His people.

Most people have the idea that we are going to answer to God some day for how much we have done. Nothing could be further from the truth. Some have the idea that we are going to answer to God for what we have done. That may be a little closer to the truth, but it is still not the answer. We are going to answer to God for what we have done with what God has given us and for what we could have done.

This is message 57 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 60:1-22 God calls His people to rise and reflect His glory, promising to restore what was broken, to gather the nations to Himself, and to dwell with His people in Lasting righteousness and peace. His light will replace all darkness, and His presence will become the everlasting joy of those who belong to Him.

What we do with our time is what we do with our lives. Time is a gift from God. What we do with our time can be our gift to God. If we are convinced we shall answer to God for what we did with our lives, then we should also be convinced that we must answer to Him for our time.

This is message 56 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 59:1-21 Sin separates, but the Lord still saves. Though man is cut off by guilt and blinded by rebellion, God does not leave him without hope. In holiness, He exposes sin; in mercy, He steps in to redeem. The fear of His name is not terror but reverence, as He reveals Himself as both Judge and Redeemer.

The truly rich are not necessarily rich in the things of this world. Those who know the true and living God recognize that He is the One who holds the deed to all that has worth in this world, and the things of true worth in this world are connected with the world to come.

This is message 18 in The Power of God's Name Ezekiel 20:7-44 God's people had polluted His name through idolatry, rebellion, and hypocrisy, dragging His reputation through the dust by how they lived. Yet God, for the sake of His name, showed mercy. He corrected, He chastened, and He promised restoration, not because they were worthy but because His name is holy and cannot be left in reproach. His purpose was not only to preserve His people but to sanctify His name in their hearts and before the nations.

God begins the subject of stewardship in the very first chapter of the Bible. Typically, when the word "stewardship" is mentioned, most people think of money. It involves much more than money. It involves all our response to God in life.

Christ's High Priestly Prayer brings us back to what matters most. Jesus Christ demonstrated His love for us by going to the cross to pay our sin debt. Because of what God has done for us, we ought to do with our lives what He desires. Out of our relationship and fellowship with Him, we can move in the direction that God gives us. If your name is written in heaven, then everything you do as a Christian ought to flow from that reality.
