That right also include access to the Name of Jesus Christ which is above every other name, and the power in the name of Jesus Christ will begin to answer to you.

Prayer

Lord Jesus,

I believe that you came in the flesh and died for my sins, and after three days you rose again, and you have been highly exalted and given a name that is above every other name.

That at the mention of your name, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that you are Lord.

I receive you into my heart, and I believe in your personality.

Take the stage of my life and have your way, lead me every step of the way, teach me where I need to be thought. Let your will always triumph over mine, make me a vessel unto honor and glory that is mete for your use at all times in Jesus Name, Amen.
