Releasing the Resources of Heaven
Through the Name of Jesus
Part 1
Let us look at the text from the Bible. Reading from John 16:23, 23:
The Name of Jesus gives the believer access to the throne of Father. It is the key that unlocks heaven’s resources and meets every need on the earth.
The disciples were told by Jesus to pray to the Father in His name. For our prayers to reach heaven and heard before the Father, we must come through the key of the name of Jesus.
Jesus is at the right hand of the Father as our Mediator, Intercessor, Advocate and Lord. That is His present day ministry at the throne for the new creation.
You shall ask nothing in my name
This day that He is speaking about is the day when He is raised from the dead and seated at the right hand of the Father as our Great High Priest and Lord. “In that day you shall not pray to me…” He is telling them not to pray or ask Him. IN the Old Covenant, it was a norm for the Israelite to ask and present his needs to the priests or the High priests who were serving in the temple.
But now Jesus is giving the guidelines for New Covenant praying. Praying to the Father in His name.
This is where the church has missed it. New Covenant prayers are prayed based upon the rules and guidelines that Jesus has given to us.
