Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Philippians 2: 9
We are told that He has been given “a name that is above every name”.
What name is it?
JESUS!
At the mention of that simple name:
Live’s have been altered;
Fevered brows have cooled;
Blinded eyes have opened;
Deaf ears have unstopped;
Sin’s shackles have fallen away;
Night has turned to day;
Defeat has been swallowed up in the jaws of victory;
Hope had replaced defeat;
Dead men have come to life;
Lost men have been found;
Devils have trembled;
Sinners have broken;
Saints have shouted;
Angels have bowed;
More has been done through the agency and power of that Name than of all the names of all other people combined.
There really is just something about that Name!
The Name Jesus is the sweetest Name ever to fall upon human ears!
That Name is a cause for celebration in Heaven.
That Name strikes fear into the hearts of the inhabitants of Hell.
That Name is what changed my life, opened my eyes and saved my soul!
There’s Just Something About That Name!
In Heaven they know that Name! In Heaven they praise that Name! In Hell they know that Name! Those in Hell will one day bow and praise that Name! Satan knows that Name! One day, even Satan himself will bow and praise that Name! The only place where the Name of Jesus is not known in power and glory is in the heart and lives of lost men and women. One day, even you, lost friend, will bow and praise that Name. Doesn’t it make more sense to bow in this altar and acknowledge and accept that Name today and be saved, than to deny Jesus, die lost and still have to acknowledge His as Savior, Lord and Christ some day? Don’t you want to do it when it can save you instead of when it can do you no good?

About Me
- J.A. Vazquez
- I'm just, a nobody, trying to tell everybody, about Somebody who can save anybody. First I want to give love to the Father for giving me the opportunity to be an instrument for him to live in and live through for the glory that belongs to only him and Him alone. I served in the United States Navy for twenty one years and retired September 2003. During the last 3 years of my naval career, I served as co-pastor of Greater New Refuge COGIC in Fallon, Nevada under the tutelage of Pastor Gregory L. Brown. While there, I diligently served my pastor and church with the construction of a new sanctuary, and caring for the needs of all ministries, while simultaneously striving to stay focused on the mandate that the Lord had placed upon my life to preach the Word of God without compromise. I was licensed to preach November 2002 and Ordained June 2003. While stationed in Virginia Beach, Virginia, I proudly served and as constituent of Pleasant Grove Baptist Church for seventeen years under the leadership of Bishop Elect W. D. Scott, Sr. and presently serve under the leadership of Bishop B. Courtney McBath at Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk, Virginia.
