I Know A Name Devotional

There is power in a name. Some names evoke memories, others carry authority, but there is only one Name that has the power to silence storms, defeat death, and bring the dead to life—the Name of Jesus. Throughout Scripture, we see the incredible authority of Jesus' Name. When spoken, demons trembled (Luke 10:17), sickness vanished (Acts 3:6), and salvation became a reality (Acts 4:12). His Name is not just a title; it is a declaration of His character, His power, and His victory over sin and death. The Name That Breaks Chains In I Know A Name, we declare that when we call on Jesus, chains break and dry bones wake. This echoes Ezekiel 37, where God commands the prophet to speak to the valley of dry bones, and by His word, life is restored. The same is true for us today. Whatever feels lifeless—our faith, our joy, our hope—can come back to life in Jesus' Name. Are there areas in your life where you feel bound or dry? Call on His Name. Philippians 2:9-11 reminds us that God has given Jesus the Name above every name, and at His Name, every knee will bow. That includes every fear, every struggle, and every stronghold. The Name That Shakes Hell When we sing, "The gates of hell shake every time I call Your Name," we are reminded of Jesus' promise in Matthew 16:18—"I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." The enemy has no power over a believer who stands firm in Jesus' Name. Whatever battle you face, know this: the darkness trembles when you speak His Name in faith. The Name That Brings Resurrection The bridge of the song proclaims, "Dead things come alive in the Name of Jesus." This isn't just poetic language—it's the heartbeat of the Gospel. Jesus didn't just defeat death for Himself; He did it for us. When He called Lazarus from the grave (John 11:43), life returned. And today, He is still calling dead things back to life—dreams, relationships, faith, and even our very souls. Call on His Name Today No matter where you are, no matter what you face, there is power when you call on Jesus. If you need healing, call Him your Healer. If you need freedom, call Him your Deliverer. If you need strength, call Him your Sustainer. The Name of Jesus isn't just something we say—it's who He is. He is alive, reigning in power, and when we speak His Name in faith, something shifts in the spiritual realm. Today, take a moment to call on His Name. Whisper it in worship. Declare it in confidence. Shout it in victory. And watch as chains break, dry bones wake, and the very gates of hell shake in response. Prayer Jesus, Your Name is above every name. When I call on You, I know You hear me. Today, I bring You every burden, every fear, and every dead thing in my life, and I declare that You have the power to bring life and freedom. Strengthen my faith to trust in Your Name, and let me walk in the authority and victory that is mine through You. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

I Know That I Know Devotional

Scripture: ā€œI will never leave you nor forsake you.” — Hebrews 13:5 There are moments in life when uncertainty looms, when circumstances shake us, and when our faith is tested. In those times, we are faced with a choice: to stand firm on God's promises or to let doubt creep in. The song I Know That I Know by The Belonging Co is an anthem of unwavering faith—a declaration that, no matter what comes, we can be sure of God's goodness and faithfulness. A Faith That Stands Firm The first verse reminds us of a fundamental truth: God has been good all our lives. His character does not waver, and His promises never fail. ā€œYou've been good, good for all my life. So nothing could ever change my mind.” No situation—no valley, no storm—can change who He is. When we reflect on our lives, we can see His faithfulness woven through every season, both in the highs and the lows. But faith isn't just about what we've experienced. It's also about what we choose to believe, even when we can't see. ā€œI've got a faith that's sure of things I cannot see.” This echoes Hebrews 11:1, which says, ā€œNow faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” True faith stands even when sight fails, even when the road ahead is unclear. A Faith That Anchors The second verse declares a bold commitment: ā€œI won't look to the left or right, and I will keep heaven in my sight.” How often do distractions pull our gaze away from Jesus? When Peter walked on water, he was fine as long as his eyes were on Christ. But the moment he focused on the wind and waves, he began to sink (Matthew 14:29-30). This song reminds us to fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2). The bridge drives this truth even deeper: ā€œI won't stand on words of man, God I'll stand on Yours instead.” Human wisdom is fragile. Trends shift, opinions change, and promises are broken. But the Word of God stands forever (Isaiah 40:8). When we anchor our lives in His truth, we build on an unshakable foundation (Matthew 7:24-25). A Faith That Declares Worship is more than just words—it's a declaration of what we know to be true. The chorus bursts forth with confidence: ā€œOh, I know that I know, You won't ever let me go.” This is not a hesitant hope; this is a certainty that God is faithful in every high and every low. David echoes this in Psalm 37:25: ā€œI have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken.” Even when circumstances suggest otherwise, we can boldly proclaim that God is still good. He is still working. He is still holding us. A Faith That Endures As the song closes with repeated declarations—ā€œYou're faithful all the time”—we are reminded of Lamentations 3:22-23: ā€œBecause of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.” No matter what season you are in today, let this song be your anthem. Stand firm. Keep your eyes on Jesus. Declare His faithfulness. Because in the end, when all else fades, one thing remains: We know that we know—our God is good, and He will never let us go. Reflection Questions: When has God proven His faithfulness in your life? What distractions are pulling your focus away from Jesus? How can you anchor your heart in God's Word instead of the words of man? What promises of God do you need to declare over your life today? Prayer:Lord, thank You for being faithful all the time. Help me to stand firm on Your promises, even when I cannot see the way ahead. Strengthen my faith so that I will not be moved by circumstances, but instead, I will fix my eyes on You. I declare today that I know that I know—You are good, and You will never let me go. Amen.
