Matthew 1:21 She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.
After last week’s prayer call, I was asked about the focus scriptures: Isaiah 7:14b: "Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel." And, Matthew 1:23: "Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel, which means, "God is with us" about Jesus being named Immanuel. But, Matthew 1:21 was also used in the meditation that bears the name "Jesus” It reads,"She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." And if you read a little farther in Matthew 1:22 it reads All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet (Isaiah) "Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means, God is with us." All this was told to Joseph in a dream by the angel of the Lord. In my research, I could not find anywhere whereas Mary the mother of Jesus called him anything but Jesus. Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua, which means the Lord saves.There are many names for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In John 8:56-59, Jesus presents himself as the "I AM." The "I AM" is the divine name (Ex 3:14), a claim to pre-existence and oneness with God. Jesus is called the "Son of Man" because he is both divine and he is human. Isaiah 9:6 named the coming Messiah and consequently Jesus Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. The ancient Law of Sacrifice calls Jesus as the Lamb of God. John 1 refers to Jesus as The Word. Some names are the Bright Morning Star, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. This Christmas season, a popular song Don't Forget The Baby sings His name is Jesus Mary's baby Manger born Don't Forget The Baby His name is Jesus Jehovah Jirah He's my provider don't forget the baby His name is Jesus Jehovah Raphe He is my healer don't forget the baby His name Jesus is The Great I am He'll be with me don't forget the baby His name is Jesus God Jehovah My everything don't forget the baby. His name is Jesus Jehovah Nissi He is my banner don't forget it, don't forget it His name is Jesus Emmanuel God with us don't forget the baby His name is Jesus Sweet Jesus oh Jesus don't forget the baby...So you may ask the question what’s in a name? In the name Jesus, there is joy because when I am down and out, all I have to do is call on His Holy Name Jesus, there is hope because I know that the scripture tells me that Jesus was born for my and your salvations, there is healing because when the doctor tells me there is nothing else that he can do I know a Savior that his name is Jesus healing my soul, in the name of Jesus there is strength when I feel like I can’t go on, my Father Jesus is there holding me on every side and giving me strength to run on and he will do the same for you, in the name of Jesus, there is power, in the name of Jesus, there is forgiveness, in the name of Jesus there is salvation – the scripture this morning tells us Matthew 1:21 She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins, in the name of Jesus, there is peace, in the name of Jesus, there is wholeness, in the name of Jesus is my all and all. Philippians 2:10 says "at that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." So you might ask WHAT'S IN A NAME? In the name of Jesus, there is love, in the name of Jesus, there is peace, in the name of Jesus there is salvation, in the name of Jesus, there is joy and in the
name of Jesus, there is favor. This Christmas season everyone keep our eyes and focus on Jesus because in the name of Jesus, we are saved. AMEN. AMEN. AMEN.
