The Three Fold Greatness of That Name

“Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.”
There is authority in the very Name of Jesus. Why? Firstly: He inherited that Name. Secondly, He achieved the authority of His Name by conquest. Colossians 2:15“[And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
Then again Jesus has destroyed the devil who had the power of death. Hebrews 2:14, “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.” Jesus paralysed satan and whipped him. Jesus stood before three worlds, heaven, hell and earth as the undisputed victor. Matthew 28:18, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” He now stood as Master and Ruler of the universe. All this authority over satan’s dominion, is invested in that Name.
Thirdly; The Greatness of His Name was conferred upon Him. Philippians 2: 9-10, “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth.” It had to be conferred on someone who would merit it. It was Jesus the Eternal Son of God who merited that Name.
