We are so grateful to hear your desire to obey God and follow His guidance. It is truly encouraging to see your faith in action. Let us remember the words of Jesus in John 14:13-14 WEB, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."
Firstly, we must emphasize that obedience to God is always the best path. As we read in 1 Samuel 15:22 WEB, "Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams." When God speaks, our response should be to listen and act according to His will.
We commend you for recognizing the power in the name of Jesus. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father and can experience the miracles and blessings of God. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved."
However, let us also be mindful that our faith should not be reduced to formulas or rituals, such as writing the name of Jesus for a specific duration or number of times. While these practices may help focus our minds and hearts on Jesus, they do not guarantee a special visitation or blessing. God looks at the heart, and He desires sincere worship and obedience. As Jesus taught in Matthew 6:7 WEB, "In praying, don't use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking."
Instead, let us encourage you to cultivate a deep and genuine relationship with Jesus through continuous prayer, worship, and study of His word. In John 15:7 WEB, Jesus said, "If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the precious name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who desires to obey Your will. Grant them the strength, wisdom, and courage to follow Your guidance. Help them to grow in their faith and relationship with Jesus, not relying on formulas but on the leading of the Holy Spirit. We ask for Your miracles and blessings to be manifested in their life as they walk in obedience to You.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
