DCLM Search the Scripture 7th November 2021 Lesson 1025 (Youth)

The world is filled with conflicts that have the tendencies to create fear and trouble in the minds; of young people. New Testament believers are not to succumb to fear despite the prevailing circumstances to the point that they forget the power and authority in the name of Jesus and who they are in Christ (Ephesians 2:6). They are to be constantly conscious of divine promises, provisions and protection available to them in Christ. No disease, principality or power can overcome a child of God who is seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

Question 1: What is the scope of supremacy and sufficiency of the name of Jesus?

The supremacy and sufficiency of the name of Jesus is not limited to a particular country or continent, or to national and supranational, boundaries. Everything on earth, underneath the earth, visible and invisible, in heaven, is subject to the authority in the name of Jesus. He has the final authority and power over our lives.

PRECEPTS AND PRINCIPLES FOR CHRIST’S DISCIPLES (Philippians 2:5-7; Colossians 3:17,23; 2 Thessalonians 1:11, 12; 3:6,7: 2 Timothy 2:19-21)

Christ is our perfect Example in all things. The Scripture says, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 2:5). We are commanded to imbibe the attitude of Christ as we live and prepare for His coming. The principle here is that we are to make Him our Model in all things and to conduct our lives in accordance with His word.

Question 2: In what ways is Christ our perfect Example?

“But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross” (Philippians 2:7,8).

One, humility should be the hallmark of every true believer. There cannot be something like a ‘proud’ or ‘arrogant’ Christian youth. Genuine salvation takes away the haughty spirit from believers and makes them little Christ’s. None can be said to be genuinely converted who is not like his Master in “lowliness of mind”, gentleness, meekness and selflessness.

Two, Christ did not seek to be a famous personality whose ego must be manipulated and pampered. He never sought publicity on account of His position, power and prestige.

Three, He “became obedient unto death…” It was a characteristic of the Redeemer to submit to the will of the Father. It follows then, that if Christ did. His followers should do the same in order to enjoy full benefits of their redemption.

Four, He is united with the Father in all things. The believing youths should be united as we confront our common adversary, the devil. There should be no division or disagreement among us.

Five, whatever we do as followers of Christ must be done “heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” (Colossians 3:23). we cannot afford to be part of the defilements, disorderliness and desecration of the society and expect the name of Jesus to work for us. If we exalt and promote the name of Jesus in whatever we do, His power will work mightily in our lives and situations. In all things saved youths should serve, promote and proclaim the power in His name. To enjoy divine protection, everyone must seek to come under the umbrella of the Most High.

We must ensure, we belong to Him and follow His principle and precept of meekness and submission to the will of the Father.

PROMISE AND PROVISION IN CHRIST’S MIGHTY NAME (Philippians 2:8-10; Acts 4:12; Matthew 1:21; John 1:12; 14:12,13; 1 Corinthians 6;9-11; 1 John 5:13-15; John 17:15; 14:27-29; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; Psalm 91 : 1 – 16)

“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth” (Philippians 2: I O). The name of Jesus guarantees security Of believers who put their trust in Him. It is a tower which the righteous runs into and is safe (Proverbs 18: 10).

Question 3: What are the promises and provisions available to Christian youths in Christ’s name?

“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

One, it is only through Christ’s name we have the promise of full, free and final salvation. He is the only One chosen by God to give salvation to sinners through the remission of sins. He makes the sons of men to become the sons of God; the enemies of God to become the friends of God; and turns them from darkness light.

Two, the name of Jesus gives us protection and Preservation (Exodus 12:13). God will not allow any harm to happen to His people.

Three, we have the privilege of receiving answers to our prayers (John 14:13).

Four, we have spiritual Strength to stand firm when men’s hearts begin to fail them.

Five, there is sufficient grace and power to endure in all stances.

Six, He promises to give peace to those who believe in Him (John 14:27; 16:33).

Seven, we are kept from evil (John 17: 15; Hebrews 7:25). For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storms against the wall” (Isaiah 25:4). God is a fortress and stronghold for those who seek refuge in Him. They shall be protected from the blast of the terrible. Finally, at the mention of the name of Jesus, temptation lose their power, Satan’s hosts flee, and sicknesses and diseases disappear. His name grants us healing, health, holiness and heavenly inheritance.

THE POWER OF PRAYER IN HIS MATCHLESS NAME (Philippians 2:10,11; Matthew 18: 10-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 17-19;John 14:12-14)

“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth” (Philippians 2:10). The name of Jesus is incomparable on earth and in heaven. The whole creation acknowledges the matchless name of Jesus. There is absolute, mighty, heavenly and unlimited power in the name of Jesus. No challenge, difficulty or situation can withstand the power and authority of His name. What the name did in Bible day can still be redone in our today. The apostles and disciples of Christ wrought mighty works, miracles, signs and wonders through His name. “And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all” (Acts 3:16).

Question 4: What are the privileges saved youths stand to enjoy in prayer through the matchless name of Jesus?

One, heaven stands at attention when God’s children present their requests in the name of Jesus.

Two, purity of heart and power of the Spirit are received through His name.

Three’ deadly or poisonous substances lose their potency at the mention of the name of Jesus.

Four, demons submit to God’s children through His name.

Five, greater and unprecedented, miracles, signs and wonders are wrought in His name.

Six, healing, provision and breakthrough are for believers in His name.

Seven, daily and continual victory is guaranteed to those who pray in the name of Jesus.

Believers can begin to activate the power of God for every situation, today, because of the privileges in the matchless and powerful name of Jesus.
