Genesis 4:26;
Exodus 3:13-15
After the
creation of man, God was referred to as the LORD God (Gen. 2).
In Genesis 4:26, the Bible revealed that men began to call upon the name of the Lord.
The name of the Lord is a great asset to God’s children. It’s a spiritual weapon of warfare and a hiding place. There is power in the name of the Lord. Oh! There is victory in the name of the Lord.

In Matthew
18:20, Jesus said ‘where two or three are gathered in my name, there I am in
the midst of them…’
Some of the
men of old called upon the name of the Lord, in respect to how He met them at
the point of their needs.
Some referred to Him as El-Shaddai, others called Him Jehovah Jireh, to some others, He was Jehovah Rohi, Jehovah Nissi, Jehovah Shammah, Jehovah Tsikenu, Jehovah Shalom, etc.
The important thing is that they called upon His name and He answered them. The Lord will answer you!

The name of
the Lord is a tower of refuge (a strong tower), a place of covering, a shield.
Proverbs 18:10; Joel 2:32; Psalm 116:17.
….the RIGHTEOUS runs to it…
God said to Moses ‘…I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you…’ (Ex. 33:19).

David secured
victory over Goliath by the name of the Lord (1 Sam. 17:45-49).
Psalm 20:7-8; 124:8.
Psalm 20:7-8; 124:8.
In Mark 16:17,
Jesus said ‘And these signs shall follow those who believe; IN MY NAME they
will cast out demons…’
Even the devil
and demons tremble and bow their knees at the mention of the name, JESUS!
(Phil. 2:9-11).
The name of
the Lord gives us access privilege to the throne of God.
Whatsoever you ask in My name – John 14:13
Whatsoever you ask the Father in My name – John 15:16
Acts 3:1-6; 4:10-12
Whatsoever you ask in My name – John 14:13

Acts 3:1-6; 4:10-12
However,
anyone who wants to call upon the name of the Lord must depart from iniquity –
2 Tim. 2:19.
Many people call upon the name of the Lord, but the Lord knows those who are His. (John 10:14, 27; Matt. 7:21).
Many people call upon the name of the Lord, but the Lord knows those who are His. (John 10:14, 27; Matt. 7:21).
Lastly,
through faith in the name of the Lord, we receive the Spirit of adoption into
sonship (John 1:12; Romans 8:15).
Through faith
in the name of the Jesus Christ, we receive the life of God (John 20:30-31).
Beyond
reasonable doubts, power, victory, dominion, blessings, protection, honour,
security.....and many more, are accessible through the name of Jesus Christ!
