I do believe the Word of God as well as Claiming the Word over myself and others in Jesus. I know there is angels all around me but the Name Jesus has Saved my life many times, Healed my life many times and Protected my life many times.
One of the neatest things that ever happened to me was I had a mountain lion suddenly appear right above me when I was treasure hunting in the Superstitious Mountains of Arizona looking for the lost Dutchman mine. I thought my life was about to be over. The mountain lion had the advantage as it was right above my head. My first thought was run but I was climbing and going through or around sticker bush type plants and there was really no where to run without falling. I was forced to be frozen. It really is amazing how much a person can think about in a second. I thought how is the Word going to save me this time. I thought about the unnamed prophet who was killed by a lion and the lion and his donkey sat with him afterwards. I thought about something I read in the book of Job about the beasts of the field being at peace with the Righteous, I thought but I’m not Righteous but I remembered reading about Jesus giving Us His Righteousness so I told the beast something like; Jesus says we are at peace with each other. I looked away as if I was still about to die and looked back and the lion was gone. I believe the declaration of Jesus utterly saved my life.
Some of the things that Scripture teaches us about the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit can happen for us but what is His Name that He is asking us? Isn’t that Name Jesus in the language that we are using here? I also know His Name in the Greek as well as Hebrew and I have heard of others dying and calling on Jesus to rescue them from demons who were trying to get them and He came for them.
Bottom line is that we can all think and believe what we want that is true but it’s His Name above names that will rescue each of us especially when we pass over to our everlasting lives where the angel of death might try to trick each of us and what One Name am I going to cry out for to help me in my moment? You can do what you want and believe what you want but is that dying to ourselves, is that taking no thought for our lives at the same time in our moments where we truly need the Father, Son and Spirit to rescue us by using His Name and what is His Name?
