Scripture of the Day: It’s Something About That Name
Acts 19:13 Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, “In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.” 14 Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. 15 [One day] the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?” 16 Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on them and overpowered them all. He gave them such a beating that they ran out of the house naked and bleeding. 17 When this became known to the Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus, they were all seized with fear, and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor.
Notice the people did not marvel because the demon was in the person, they marveled because the demon knew, respected, and submitted to the name of Jesus. Whenever we’re attacked by the devil in any situation, call on the name of Jesus and that devil must go. Every demon, devil, or evil spirit must know, respect, and submit to the name of Jesus.
There is one condition.
We must fully know, respect, and submit to the name of Jesus ourselves. We can’t cast devils out our family, home, or life if we’re not submitted to God ourselves. We need to totally submit to God and watch the power of God work in our lives.
Be Blessed!
