In the Name of Jesus

Scripture Acts 4:10 let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.

Observation: Do we always give Jesus the glory when He performs miracles in our lives? In my prayer walks God has shown me answered prayers as we pray in the name of Jesus, but I don’t always give God the glory when those miracles are performed in my life. My whole life is a miracle, I shouldn’t even still be alive so anything good that comes out of it is a miracle.

Application: When I give my testimony and how God has worked in my life I need to point to Jesus as the miracle worker. So much happens in a course of a day that even at the end I don’t remember all the people that I’ve talked to. I need to take time and reflect on these moments and to make sure that the glory goes to Christ so that others will seek Him.

Prayer: Thank you, Jesus, for loving me so much that You didn’t give up on this old sinner. May I always be obedient giving You the glory as You work through my life. I love You and ask that You keep me close.
