 THE POWER OF CHRIST’S NAME

The Name of Jesus Christ is not a slogan, a chant, or a religious ornament—it is a living Authority backed by Heaven. Scripture declares that God “highly exalted Him and gave Him the Name which is above every name” (Philippians 2:9). In that Name, the fullness of Christ’s Victory is made available to the Believer. When the Name of Jesus is spoken in Faith, Heaven responds and hell retreats.


The early Church did not rely on eloquence, status, or numbers; they relied on the Name. Peter declared to the lame man, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk” (Acts 3:6), and strength entered dead limbs. Jesus Himself affirmed that signs would follow those who believe: “In My name they will cast out demons… they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover” (Mark 16:17–18). The Name carries delegated authority—authority over sickness, demons, fear, sin, and circumstances.


To call on the Name of Jesus is to invoke His person, His power, and His finished work. “There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). The Name of Jesus is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe (Proverbs 18:10). In times of crisis, temptation, warfare, and prayer, the believer does not stand helpless—we stand clothed with the Authority of Christ’s Name.


Prayer Points:


1.Father, in the Name of Jesus Christ, I declare that every force opposing Your purpose in my life bows now—let healing, deliverance, and Divine order be released in Jesus’ Name.


2.Lord Jesus, teach me to walk daily in the consciousness of the Power in Your Name; let my words carry Authority, my Prayers produce results, and my life glorify Your Name. Amen.

TRUSTING GOD'S PROCESS

 TRUSTING GOD'S PROCESS BY: Evangelist Oluwole Olaleye Christ Witness Evangelical Outreach a.k.a Christ Witness Mission Enquiry:08038533059 Life often brings situations filled with uncertainty, delay, and challenges. During such times, trusting God’s process means believing that He is working behind the scenes for our good—even when we cannot see the outcome immediately. God’s timing and ways are perfect (Isaiah 55:8-9), and His plans for us are to prosper and not to harm, to give us a hopeful future (Jeremiah 29:11). When we trust God’s process, we surrender our impatience and doubts, knowing that He is molding us, preparing us for greater things. Just as a farmer waits patiently for the harvest (James 5:7), we too are called to wait with faith, confident that God’s purpose will be fulfilled at the right time. Key Scripture References: Proverbs 3:5-6 — "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will ma...

WHY PEOPLE LEAVE CHURCH?

 *WHY PEOPLE LEAVE CHURCH*  By: Evangelist Oluwole Olaleye  People leave church for many reasons, and often it’s a combination of personal, social, and spiritual factors. Understanding these reasons can help churches become more welcoming, supportive, and relevant. Here are some common causes:  *Disconnection and Lack of Belonging*  Many leave because they don’t feel connected to the community. If people feel ignored, judged, or like outsiders, they may drift away. A church that doesn’t foster genuine relationships or inclusiveness can push people out.  *Unmet Expectations*  People often join church with certain hopes—spiritual growth, support, meaningful worship. When those expectations aren’t met, disappointment sets in. If sermons, programs, or leadership don’t resonate, people may stop attending.  *Hypocrisy and Leadership Failures*  Scandals, moral failures, or hypocrisy among church leaders can deeply hurt members’ trust. When those in ...

THE CHURCH AS A MORAL COMPASS IN PUBLIC LEADERSHIP

 THE CHURCH AS A MORAL COMPASS IN PUBLIC LEADERSHIP The Church serves as a vital moral compass in public leadership by upholding God’s standards of Righteousness, Justice, and Accountability in society. Through the teaching of Scripture, the Church reminds leaders that authority is a trust from God and must be exercised with Integrity, Humility, and service to the people (Romans 13:1; Micah 6:8). By speaking Truth to power, the Church helps to shape the conscience of leaders and restrain the misuse of power. In times when corruption, injustice, and moral compromise threaten public life, the Church stands as a prophetic voice, calling leaders back to ethical governance and the fear of God (Proverbs 14:34; Isaiah 1:16–17). Beyond advocacy, the Church models Godly leadership through its own practices of transparency, compassion, and stewardship, demonstrating that moral leadership is both possible and practical. When the Church Faithfully fulfills this role, it contributes to the emer...
