1 | Ending prayers in Jesus Nane. | Col 3:17 | farout | 16948 | ||
Where did Jesus say we must end our prayers "In Jesus Name"? I often fall asleep praying and I doubt that because I did Not remember to say IN JESUS NAME it failed to get His attention. Thank any one for your responce. | ||||||
2 | Ending prayers in Jesus Nane. | Col 3:17 | charis | 16949 | ||
Dear farout, I don't know if there is a specific Scripture that says to end your prayers in Jesus' name, especially to the effect that it won't be heard for failing to do so. I use the above Verse often, not because it is legally required, but because I enjoy it, and I believe it! I love to greet a Christian brother or sister in Jesus' name. I enter the home of a believer and give my blessings in Jesus' name. I receive my meals in Jesus' name. I begin my prayers to the Father, in Jesus' name, and end in Jesus' name. (If you start that way, you can safely fall asleep! :-)) I have been told that I overdo it, but I feel it is not enough, considering the above exhortation. TV and movies only speak Jesus' name as a curse or exclamation. Many churches 'wiggle around' that holy name, saying just about anything BUT Jesus' name! My personal feelings are that speaking His name with reverence increases our faith, and reminds us of His salvation. Whenever I speak or write His wonderful name, it makes me pause and think, and focus. In the name of Jesus, charis |
