*HOW TO TRUST IN THE NAME OF THE LORD.*
*ISAIAH 50: 10 -11(AMPC), PSALMS 124:8*
*Who is among you who (reverently) fears the Lord, who obeys the voice of His Servant, yet who walks in darkness and deep trouble and has no shinning splendor { in his heart }? Let him rely on, trust in, and be confident in the name of the Lord, and let him lean upon and be supported by his God.* *Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.*
The beginning of trusting in the name of the Lord is understanding what the name of the Lord is. The name of the Lord is not J. E. S. U. S. There are several people who go by the name Jesus. The name of the Lord is the authority that Jesus the Son of God received by his resurrection from the dead. "For to this end Christ both died, and rise, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living" "( Rom. 14:9 ). "And being found in fashion as a man , he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name,. That at name of Jesus every knee should bow of things in heaven and things in Earth and things under the Earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Phil 2:8-11).
Before his resurrection he was already called Jesus. The name God gave him after his resurrection was not J. E. S. U. S. It was an authority over every other power and authority. He became Lord of all. He can now control and exercise influence over every other power and authority. The way to trust in the name of the Lord is to trust that by the authority of the resurrected Christ you have victory over that situation or area of your life.
*FAITH DECLARATION:*
Jesus is Lord of all. I trust that by the authority of the resurrected Christ I have the victory.
