Power in the Name

 
Tonight at The Mission Society's Global Gathering, we prayed for specific needs in each country of service. Since I serve in Ghana, I was in the group that included the continent of Africa. When we were asked for specific prayer requests, the people serving in Africa all mentioned situations in which the power of darkness was very evident. One of my colleagues spoke up and pointed this out. And, continued with the fact that there is power in the name of Jesus. When we don't know how to pray in a situation, pray, "Jesus." The devil and his minions MUST flee at the mention of His name. Oh, if we would only remember that; if only that were our first response. The above picture is of Albert (L) and Hassan (R). Hassan is pointing to a picture and telling Albert, "Jesus!" I have a lot to learn from this two year old great grandson of mine...no hesitation, no complicated explanation, just, JESUS!"
