Philippians 2:9-11
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him
the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should
bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge
that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Often we don’t take the time to think about the value that a
name holds. Jesus was given a name that
is above every name! He was given a name
was meant for all to bow down before him and praise him. No other name will ever be held higher than
that of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
When we were expecting our son, we chose the name
Jonathan. Jonathan was David’s best
friend in the Bible. The name means
Yahweh has given. Some dictionaries say
that it means gift from God. We selected
this name carefully. We had lost one
baby before and knew that he may be our only child so it was with great thought
that his name was selected.
I encourage you to take a few minutes today to reflect upon
what the name of Jesus means to you.
