OUR LEGAL AUTHORITY TO USE: Daily Devotional

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it (John 14:13-14).

When we say that Jesus gave us authority to use His name, many don't understand what that means. The term "power of attorney" refers to a legal power of attorney that gives a specific person authority to act on your behalf. Therefore, it means that every request

you make is as if Jesus were doing it, since you are doing it in His name.

The apostle John said in some of his writings: vividly captures the words of Jesus further clarifying the legal authority of given to us in His name. For example, in John 14:13-14 Jesus said, "And whatever ye ask in my name I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son."

If you ask anything in my name, I will do it.” Here the Lord was speaking of claiming His name. This is extraordinary.

It's like what Paul tells us in Colossians 3:17: “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus…". There is another beautiful reference at John 16:23; says: "And on that day you will not ask me anything.

Verily, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father

on my behalf, he will give you."

When he said: "And on that day …” the Lord was referring to the day of the new deal, the day of salvation, which He came to complete. That day began with His resurrection. So we are in "that day" where we use his name and live in him. If you've ever wondered why we use the

Name of Jesus in prayer all around the world, here's why.

So use His name right now to make changes in your world. He told us we could and you should! Address the affairs of your nation, your physical body, your workplace, your school, etc. in His name and expect a change.

Dear Father, Thank you for giving me the authority to use Use the matchless name of Jesus to effect change and control circumstances.

In the name of Jesus I speak peace among the nations; I declare that the gospel has free rein in the nations of the world. I walk in victory and dominion today and always, for I live and do all things by power in Jesus' name. Amen.

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints (Ephesians 6:18).
