The matchless name.  The name above all names.  The name that will cause every knee to bow.  The name that every tongue will confess.

 

Jesus.

 

I remember a time when I felt hopeless and alone- one of those days you knew couldn’t possibly get worse, but then of course, it did.  I sat at my kitchen table… tear-stained face hidden in my hands… and all I could do was whisper out loud, “Jesus.” 

 

It was faint and desperate, but softly uttering that name gave me hope.  I spoke it again… more strength surfaced.  Over the course of several minutes, I spoke His name again and again.  What started out as a cry of desperation turned into a victorious shout.  My Savior, Jesus was my shield and strength.  He was my Refuge.  He was my Deliverer.  He was my Victory!  I was flooded with such expectancy, just by saying and believing in the power of His name.
