Psalm 23:3.
”He leads me in the path of righteousness for His name’s sake”
A name is powerful, and it can open manifold doors for its bearer.
Once upon a time, as a young teacher, I chanced upon the son of the late Evangelist Amoako, one of the most revered evangelists our nation Ghana has had. I couldn’t help my excitement and was ready to help the young man in everyway possible because of the name he carried.
What’s in your name and whose name is on you? God has promised an amazing package for all those who bear His name.
- Forgiveness for His name’s sake. The Bible says, ”I even I, am the one who blots out all your transgressions and remembers them no more.”
(Isa 43: 25). Nothing can be more reassuring than that. - He defends you for His name’s sake.
God said, I will defend this city and save it for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David. (Isa 37:35). Get ready for divine protection on God’s own merit and terms, as you call upon Him. - He will direct you for His name’s sake.
The Psalmist says “he leads me in the path of righteousness for His name’s sake”.(Psm 23:3)
That means you can have divine direction in a chaotic situation.
Dear friend, I encourage you to strongly align yourself with the name of the Lord; for it will work wonders in your life.
David said “the name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run to it and they are safe”.
Indeed this life is not really about who you are but whose you are.
Stay safe as you stay connected to the name that is above all names:the name of Jesus!
