The Naming of Jesus


Morning Psalm 103; Genesis 17:1-16; Colossians 2:6-12
Evening Psalm 148; John 16:23b-30
God’s relationship with Abram and Sarai changed them; they received new names, Abraham and Sarah. God wants to change us too, so that, by living in close relationship with Jesus, “rooted and built up in him”, we become God’s healing presence where we are. ‘Jesus’ means ‘healer’ and we naturally heal the world around us as we become more like him.
In the name of Jesus (i.e. by being true to who Jesus is) you may ask anything of God, and God will hear, for “the Father loves you”.
