In Jesus’ Name

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on November 28, 2017 by Steve DurkacNovember 28, 2017avatar

We commonly conclude our prayers by saying “In Jesus’ Name” and rightly so. When you say, “Lord, in the name of Jesus I pray, Amen” you are sharing in His power by claiming His character, life, atonement, and righteousness – not yours!
