What A Beautiful Name -- The Name of Jesus - Part 2164

"And they that know Thy Name will put their trust in Thee: for Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee." (Psalm 9:10)

"Through Thee will we push down our enemies: through Thy Name will we tread them under that rise up against us." (Psalm 44:5)

"But let all those that put their trust in Thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because Thou defends them: let them also that love Thy Name be joyful in Thee." (Psalm 5:11)

"O Lord our Lord, how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! Who hast set Thy glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast Thou ordained strength because of Thine enemies, that Thou might still the enemy and the avenger. When I consider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast ordained; what is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the Son of man, that Thou visits Him?

For Thou hast made Him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned Him with glory and honour. Thou made Him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet: all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passes through the paths of the seas. O Lord our Lord, how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth!" (Psalm 8:1-9) 

"I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness: and will sing praise to the Name of the Lord Most High." (Psalm 7:17)

"We will rejoice in Thy salvation, and in the Name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfill all thy petitions ... Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the Name of the Lord our God." (Psalm 20:5-7)

"I will declare Thy Name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee." (Psalm 22:22)

"He restores my soul: He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake." (Psalm 23:3)

"For Thy Name’s sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great." (Psalm 25:11)

"Give unto the Lord the glory due unto His Name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness." (Psalm 29:2)

"For Thou [art] my Rock and my fortress; therefore for Thy Name’s sake lead me, and guide me." (Psalm 31:3)

"For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His Holy Name." (Psalm 33:21)

"O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His Name together." (Psalm 34:3)

Who was the psalmist David speaking of? The Word made flesh -- the Word that was with God and was God -- who dwelt among us so that we could behold His glory. (John 1:1-14; I Timothy 3:16; Titus 3:4-7; Isaiah 9:6; Revelation 1:8; Matthew 1:21-23)

"And ye shall call His Name JESUS, for He shall save His people from their sins ... Emmanuel, being interpreted, God with us!" (Matthew 1:21-23) 

In fact, throughout the New Testament, as prophesied by the psalmist David, Jesus' words and deeds cry out for us to believe. Only believe. Have faith in God our Saviour Jesus the Christ. (Titus 3:4-7; Titus 2:13; I Timothy 3:16) Follow Him so that He can make you fishers of men. Let Him arise in your heart! 

Then you will hear Jesus whisper. "Look to Me all you people for I AM the Lord your God and beside Me there is no Saviour." (Isaiah 45:22)
