And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues.
Mark 16:17
There’s a difference between calling on the Name of Jesus and making a demand in His Name. It’s crucial to understand this distinction. Consider Romans 10:13; it says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Sinners can call upon His Name for salvation, but as Christians, we use His Name; we exercise dominion in His Name.
Using His Name isn’t about calling out to Him as if you’re still a sinner seeking salvation. Now that you’re born again, you belong to the household of God. The Name of Jesus is now named upon you and given to you to live by. You don’t need to call upon Him anymore for anything: rather, you use His Name with authority to create anything or effect the changes you desire.
Notice in our opening verse that He didn’t say, “Call upon my name and I’ll cast the devils out and heal the sick”; no! Rather, you’re to use His Name to cast out devils, heal the sick, cleanse lepers, and raise the dead. His Name is an instrument; use it! In John 14:13-14 He said, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do…If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.”
What a bold statement! That means you can demand anything in His Name and it’ll happen. For example, if you were in a distressing situation, instead of calling “Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!” out of desperation or panic, declare what you want in His Name. Speak with the authority He’s given you. You say, “In the Name of Jesus, I demand healing,” or “In the Name of Jesus, you devil of darkness, I command you to lose your grip and get out!”
Always remember that you’re in charge and in control because you function in the Name of Jesus. Everything in life, physical and spiritual, including governments, thrones, the galaxies, principalities and powers, are all subject to the Name of Jesus. Declare what you want in His Name with confidence, and you’ll have a testimony. Glory be to God!
