Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s Devotional MESSAGE:
Pst Chris
Many think that the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Godhead, doesn’t have a name or that “Holy Spirit” is His Name. But no; He does have a name. “Holy Spirit” is the description of His personality, not His name. To say “Holy Spirit” is His name is like you saying your name is “human being”; that doesn’t reveal your personal name. So, calling Him Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit doesn’t tell us His name.
Let me clarify this further. The Father also has a name; “Father” is a title, not a name. For example, your biological father’s name isn’t “Daddy”; Daddy or father only describes his position, function or role, not his individual identity. Similarly, the Holy Spirit has a name that goes beyond the description of His person, role or position, and that name is Jesus.
The Holy Spirit responds to the name of Jesus. It’s important that you understand this. If you want the Holy Spirit to do something, you don’t say, “Holy Spirit, do this or do that”; it’s useless because there’s no place in the entire Bible where we’re instructed to tell the Holy Spirit to do something. Instead, the Holy Spirit moves and works in response to the Name of Jesus.
When you call upon the Name of Jesus, the Holy Spirit manifests the presence of Jesus. This is because Jesus is currently seated on the throne and has remained there since His ascension; but when you call His name, the Holy Spirit moves into operation. Even the Father also responds to the Name of Jesus. The Name of Jesus is the name of the Godhead.
Recall what we read in our opening verse: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” In carrying out this instruction, the Apostles baptised people in the Name of Jesus. We do the same today.
Hallelujah! The Bible says of Jesus, “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell” (Colossians 1:16-19).
Take advantage of this truth today. When you call upon the Name of Jesus, it’s through the Holy Ghost that the presence and power of Jesus are manifested. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of the power in the Name of Jesus. As I call upon the Name of Jesus, the presence of the Holy Ghost is activated in my life, bringing divine intervention and miracles. I live triumphantly every day, knowing that Jesus, the joy of heaven, resides in me and that through His Name, I experience the glory and power of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Jesus Trends Salvation Prayer
Heavenly Father,
I come to You in humility and repentance, acknowledging my sins and my need for Your grace. Lord Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God, who died for my sins and rose again to give me eternal life. I confess You as my Savior and Lord.
Forgive me, cleanse me with Your precious blood, and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. I turn away from my sinful ways and open my heart to You. Take control of my life and guide me in Your truth.
If you joined in that life-changing prayer, congratulations! We are happy that you have surrendered your life to Jesus!
