Knowing His Name, Unlocks His Power (Knowing Jesus)

if I can work at the good morning, Just you're keeping well and I'm excited to be here and I was sitting down thinking how long have you been Festival after apologizing, for not being here last year when I'm supposed to speak cuz then we got stuck in Berlin. I think we couldn't get a flight to have to drive down in the end. While I was going to have first, I thought they were going to a few of the University of box which holds a significant place for Dave and Julia was 24 years ago. That we came to this church for the first time, 24 years ago and then what a journey has been so many stories to tell. We are I just thank God for what he did in US children. What he did in our relationship with Dave and Julia. Many of the people who were here. Yeah, I could get emotional

You don't, you know, when you're on the right, track is when God interrupts your thinking. So I was driving down here and I still got interrupted my thoughts and he was like, well, you know, he needs to move out of Virginia and I was like, I said, what can they fit? Go there next week if you like, for next month. And I was like, okay, I'm listening. The next thing to happen is we sing this song for, your name is great, and greatly to be praised. So actually before I start my pre-trip this morning, I'm going to read a song. It's not you, you wouldn't have it cuz I haven't given about knowing his name, unlocks power. I'm just going to read. That was given to me dream worship.

It does connecting to the word I'm going to bring but I just felt the richness of this song as we were worshiping. I'm going to read Psalm 138 from the King James. I'm going to pray for me. I'm 35, but I'm going to read this from the King James Psalms 138. Verse 1 says this, I will praise thee with my whole heart. Before the gods, will I Sing Praises unto thee? I will wish shift towards the Holy Temple, and praise thy name for the loving-kindness. And for that truce, for thou Hast magnified by word above all my name, another young man that was very powerful for me that God magnified. His word above all his name. And actually when you think about it this is in songs. By the time you get to John chapter one. We realize why he said that because he's What? Is Jesus. And he seen here like long before? Jesus was born, he's saying there's going to come a time that they've already read it from Philippines to that. There's going to be my world is going to be a both my name. A tree service in the day when I cried. I answered me. And strengthen me with strength in my soul. You know, sometimes you need strength in your soul. All the kings of the Earth shall praise thee O Lord. When they went when they hear the words of my mouth, this fight. Yeah they shall sing in the in the ways of the Lord for great is the glory of the Lord, verse 6 specs on to the lowly but the proud. He'd know, it's a far-off the seven. Do I walk in the midst of trouble. I will revise me. I don't know who that school this morning though, I walk in the midst of trouble, the owls will revive me stretch forth. Thine hand against the roof of my enemies alike. Right hand sew face mask. The Lord will perfect. That which concerns me think about that. Everything, that concerns you.

Yo, your life, your work, your children and we are we just become grandparents a grandson like God is saying through his word and the Lord will perfect that which concerns me that message out loud and joy for ever forsake. Not the work of their own hands. I don't know, I just felt this surge to just declare there's some over us this morning, very powerful song. Let me try and get into the woods for today.

Against someone 24 + 8.

The Bible says it. H o.

I do want to get your names wrong but John and you a couple, right? I want to speak a word over, you like a prophetic word and I was leading worship, the wood. One word was kind of over your heads, and it was stability. God is saying that you're coming into a season of stability like being rooted and grounded and coming to your place, where there's been a lot of things happening. A lot of plates moving of stability in a stable time where you can say, okay, you know, it's been rocking with removing but right now you ain't a place of stability with 80 says, it's on the screen. I'll help.

Is in Barclays Bank.

Okay, maybe you don't like Bachman's things but maybe, maybe your health is in. Scottish widows insurance from the Lions. Know, the Bible sees our hope, I will help, is in the name of the Lord.

and then it's almost like, just in case you don't realize who this load is, He's the one who made Heaven and Hell.

But in case you don't know who the Lawrence, let me remind you this Lord, he made the heavens and the Earth. That means he have all teammates house. Like girls, like my help comes from the help. Like my help comes from the help. And and we know the Bible says that I will not leave you comfortless, I will give you a comforter who would do what he will help you. And the Holy Spirit is our help. And in the Bible, the same here to help is in the name of the Lord. And sometimes we we we come, we run into trouble and we think you have self ways. I want help going to come from. The song is that, I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh. My help, my help comes from where from the Lord. This morning. Our help is in the name. Of the Lord. That's where I help him Psalm 91. Little time today. Oh, did I mention that? My my grandson is named Sam. We told him I would have another child have to call him the tag place. So it'll be found some place is because he has set up. I realized something I'm reading here from me. A Nintendo 2DS. Better than one only. Therefore I will save him. I will set him securely on high because he knows what my name.

What are you saying? Because he said his long on me. That's why I will save him, but I will send him a heart. I will put him in a secure place. Why? Because he knows my name. So knowing the name of the Lord has power because I know the name of the Lord God who automatically by default put me in a secure place. He confidently, trusts and relies on me knowing I would never abandon him. No, never. God will never abandon us. He will, he will never, leave us nor forsake us look up best 15. He will call upon me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and I will honor him. I will, why? Because he knows my name. He Knows My Name knowing the name of the Lord, we find it today for the name, what name is great and is greatly to be praised praised to you, please to your name, oh Lord because of that song this morning that was like. Okay okay so the singing about who I am so that's why when he calls me

The only one that answered him, I would deliver him from trouble. I will rescue him, I will honor him. I let people here this morning. Maybe people watching online, and you're in trouble. You'll like, what do I do? Just call his name?

Calling his name knowing his name. You didn't know his name Sam.

I told you to love that would be very

Best. Well, thank you sir. On the money. It says this. And there is salvation in no one else. No, no, no one else not even the church even a missionary there is no salvation. Yeah, I'm going to go there. No salvation in desktop in 20, no other name.

Well, there is no other name under Heaven that I've been given among people by which we must be saved, but God has provided the world know or tentative for salvation. There's no one else.

In fact, there is no other name under Heaven by which man can be saved. If I go, you can go to Golden State. Like I just want to mention.

Today salvation in no other name, except Hits 10. We would probably already this morning. He was kind of like how they've opened up unless we need game.

Then I'll get to the heart of my message. This is all like surround sound.

Every knee shall bow including your dad, give you your challenges, which would be of that include in your pain, including your unfulfilled dreams everything. The Bible, say the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow in submission, Of those who are in heaven and on Earth and under the Earth Is No Escape verse 11. And that every tongue shall confess openly and acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ Sovereign God to the glory of God, the Father every knee. so, Like I said, this is like surround sound. Let me take you to, where I really wanted to text you today. Mark 10:46.

The story that we probably all know the story of blind Bartimaeus and then into the contact with it when I saw it. I was like, I've never seen that before. I read the Bible, how many times in my life, but I've never seen that before. So hopefully you will have a little thing like that but I didn't know that it's fine woman together.

And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples, a large crowd and a large fry, a blind beggar. Bartimaeus, the son of tomatoes beside the road as was his custom. Bus 47. When Batavia has her daddy was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout and say Jesus, Son of David. Open Bracket close bracket. Only in the Amplified it says Miss China. Have mercy on me. Many Stanley rebuked him telling him to stop to keep still and be quiet but he kept on shouting. All the mall of David

Jesus stopped and said to him. So they called the blind man telling him, take courage, get up. He's calling for you.

Throwing his cloak aside came to Jesus when Jesus. And Jesus said to him, what do you want me to do for you. The blind man said to him. My master let me regain my sight in Jesus said to him, go your face.

I'm confident trust in my power has made you. Well,

Do we gain his sight and began following Jesus on the road?

Let's go back to verse 46.

Nevermind Bible name. Batman.

specific on this road Bible says, it was his custom

Was his custom to sit on the road. Just like maybe supposed to go to work.

Maybe just, I can see a custom to take care of the kids. Maybe I could cost them to take care of a loved one. Custom normal day.

On the road.

Just the way it is.

But invest 47. The Bible says he, he is something. people began to mutter people began to gather and they said Jesus of Nazareth is passing by Blind Bartimaeus, tasty stuff. This is my chance to change my situation that we don't know who he was, what he was, when his background was, how he became blind, but we do know, is that moment? He felt like I'm going to break no more just going to shower, I'm just going to South at the top of my voice, until somebody hears me and they get his attention. And my situation is going to change, I said that because the Bible says, he took off his close, the blinds people have as being of that situation. But when you hear that, you just called me, but I'm going too fast in the movie that he was Jesus of Nazareth. He began to shout out and say, actually, all the translation is the transformation that happens. When when blind Bartimaeus shouts out, he doesn't say Jesus of Nazareth, have mercy on me.

Because the name Jesus, of Nazareth, has a limited Jesus to be the boy, that was born from not. So if you read your Bible, reading of the Bible says what good? Things can come out of people have given Jesus in local name. Oh, Jesus, the local Champion. Jesus of Nazareth, I think it's time to tell us that his name is back to mails because he's a song of tomatoes and you see what's happening right now. So when when blind Bartimaeus, Jesus, Son of a king,

He speaks to the day T of Jesus. Son of David. I know you were born in Bethlehem. I know you are to them a normal human being, but I speak to the greatness that is inside of you. I mean, says photo of the moment, he speaks to something greater than choose another, if he speaks to its power, if it's in the same Jesus. Yamas, King. So that's what you are and that's why I cry out to the king. I'm a client out to use another with my neighbor. I'm flying out. I'm calling I'm calling out the Son of God, I love you. I'm calling out to the world. You are I'm pulling out to John 1:1 in. The beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the word became flesh and dwelt Among Us, who you are. I see you for who you are? You are Son of David.

Sometimes to unlock God's power. You need to see him for who he really is.

He's not just the god, you worship on a Sunday. That we do the God, we got that you. We do have to go to be preaching that we do have, to go to replace what he is. He is the king of all Kings. He is the Lord of all Lords and blind Bartimaeus in the normality of his day in the normality of his moment. He recognizes that the person passing by has the power. Not only to rescue to save the delivered but also to transform is like totally the Bible States. Actually when he got killed back to his normal, he began to follow Jesus.

so, He decides to call Jesus. I mean. He called him, the answer to my problem. What is the saying, Jesus of Nazareth. He was like, Jesus. As long as David, you are the answer to my problem. and the Bible say some people are like

to be annoying. All of a sudden, Jesus stops.

How to place? We here. Almost equals in his ear. The smile is calling to something greater like the woman with the issue of blood, Jesus shed. Somebody Touched Me Like Jesus.

Somebody touched me with so much intention ality that it would Drew power from me. I love how and what has happened in her body. But I have my birthday. That was me. That was me that touched you with so much and intentional. And here, we have blind Bartimaeus.

Desperate need of Deliverance in desperate, need of a savior tries out with intention when you cry out to God, with intention, has power. But even though we don't love his power, Jesus doesn't immediately just give him

Is that the people say to him? Wow. Finally, all your shouting, something for you. He calls for you.

I was here three weeks until he jumped off and came to Jesus and he came

Follow The Voice. Maybe people guided him. Maybe they made a pact. You guys need to keep going. Keep going. You're almost there. You're almost

Sometimes that's how it is in life for help. but we have to move in the direction of the help because they said to Jesus in the Bible says this,

Jesus said, what do you want me? To do for you.

You've cost us.

I stopped. Went out here. What do you want from me? Sometimes. We really need to know what we want from God. We really, really need to take the time. I think about it. Sometimes we just need to go. Help. Me help you but what you need help with

The blind man said to him.

He calls you another name. Doesn't calling son of David anymore. It cost him.

Give it up for me. It's almost like a movie that's playing out. It's almost like you see the end from the beginning. So the first thing you see when you miss the king,

he responds by saying, I'm going to follow you for the rest of my days.

He wasn't saying Jesus. From the day. You were saying Jesus. My master my teacher. I am not your disciple. He think he stepped in to discipleship by the answer to the question? What would you have me do for you? And answer to the question was

I'm your disciple now.

Let me regain my sight. To make this walk with you quite easy. I'm going to see how to get my sight back. I am here to follow you. I am here to be a question. Let's develop a relationship. Let us agree that I have now by Disciple. I am. Now, you are. Now if I see a light to Open Bracket close bracket,

you could have used that Elian, you could have said,

You did it? They called him. Jesus, the son of David. now in the presence of his master, not in the presence of the King Nine, the presence of Jesus, Our Savior and Lord

response.

Let me regain my sight.

Jesus says to him.

Interesting, what he says to him. He says. Go. Your feet, you're confident trust in my power. Has made you well.

I would have expected him to just say has healed you. That would be the correct thing to say. What you doing say? You're cute. Send you a well reminds me of a story.

Woman with the issue of blood. Bible says, the moment you Touch the Hem of His Garment. She was made. Hope she was cute. but then Jesus says to her woman Dave's face has made you whole Always reminds me of the story ahead of a lady who got healed scribbled all her life. Don't you? Two weeks later. The pasta sauce and said, how are you doing? This is, my life is miserable. I used to be able to park my parking. She was healed but not yet, ho. Vegeta festive blind Bartimaeus.

I'll give you a word that is bigger than the healing. I have made you.

Physically healed, but mentally restored.

Let me get Lee. He regained. His sight began following Jesus on the road.

What interested me the most about this story is the Bible in. Genesis, lots of people give daughter named after the experience. I gotta Genesis 16. Verse 13 distress, calls him. The God who sees me? Abraham, I forgot, I forgot at the ram. He called him Jehovah-jireh. Moses after the victory over the amalekites called him. The Lord. My banner Jehovah, Nissi. He built an altar to God called god Jehovah. Shalom, the Lord, my peace. Abraham after God, revealed himself at the God Almighty, El Shaddai Genesis 17:1.

after the heat of the Waters of Mara, not declared himself as the Lord who heals used Jehovah Rapha Exodus 15:26, but in this situation with blind Bartimaeus,

Ecoguard. Even before his Miracle even before he received his sight, he gave. Two names. He said, first of all, you are the son of David which was true, but not been declared yet. Then second he called him Robin. I

I'm fascinated by bottom else's experience. How he had the foresight to incite the Revelation to know. If you called, or by the name? You need him. He will unlock its power. That's what happened the moment. He cried out, Jesus, dog, son of David. It on locked, the power of God, not just to heal him, but to give him a better future the future, where he became a follower of Jesus.

I want that for you today. Maybe you just need to pray a little different. Maybe call him by the name of the output.

God, who delivered me from Fear. Who is my first priority? God, who is my provider? God, who is my the left?

Bringing this home. Now, as I have 52,

I'm okay. Okay. Isaiah 62 + 6. Therefore, my people. My people. I think I'm talking to God's people today right there. For my people shall know my name. Jesus is already here presents. He says, and what it means. And it's not even know his name. We all talk to know. What does it mean to call somebody Robin? It means you have declared yourself his disciple and so, the Bible doesn't leave us in suspense and he followed Jesus for the rest of his days.

Therefore, my people shall know my name and what it means.

The best before that says, my name is blaspheme amongst the Nations because of you but he said there's a minute time where my people shall know my name and what it means that for is that in the day you and I know his name in that day. I am the one who is speaking here?

Wow.

In that day, in the normal day of vitamins, his life.

You knew. The name to call Jesus, that would get you to the tension.

And the results. Oh. Calling out. Presented a moment where he was standing face-to-face with Jesus.

Then Jesus says to him. Here I am. Yeah, I am. What do you want me to do for you?

What would you have me do for you?

Feel that's what good is asking. All of us.

What would you have me do for you today? Doesn't know. Doesn't matter how long you been working with me? Doesn't matter if this was your custom to call, call to me. But today I want to ask you He said the day, you know, my name. You called my name and understand my name means I will do what I will be present and say, here I am right now, he's here. Of course, he was here. Before we got here, it was here. When we got here, it was here. When we worship him in this very moment, he is taking over this moment and saying Let me speak to you. I was been talkin. He talks a lot, but let me talk to you. I'm going to start by asking you a question. What's? You want me to do for you. I'm just going to ask you to see if you buy or heads wherever you are. An answer that question to me to your neighbor. But you yourself to God, it's going to ask you this question today. What you want me to do for you? What's your answer? Talk to God for a moment. Then I'll make a declaration pray. Then handed it back to Dave.

Sometimes we we allow fear of disappointment to stop us from really asking what we want. Be specific today.

Face tat disappointment. I will try to stop you from crying out to him. I have to tell him what you want.

Amen. Jesus said to him, I say to you also. Go. Your face. You're confident trust in my power. Has made you well. Be well.
