Tremendous Power in the Name of Jesus

✨ Sunday Livestream Discussion | The Power in the Name of Jesus ✨

This Sunday, Pastor Blake walked us through the powerful story of the lame man at the Beautiful Gate (Acts 3–4) and reminded us that there is tremendous power in the name of Jesus Christ. Let’s continue the conversation together. Take a moment to reflect and jump into the discussion below ⬇️

💬 Discussion Questions:

1️⃣ The lame man experienced an unexpected breakthrough when Peter said, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”

Can you recall a time when you witnessed or experienced something that felt like a breakthrough or a “miracle”—big or small—in your own life or someone else’s?

2️⃣ Pastor Blake emphasized that the healing happened “in the name of Jesus.”

What does it mean to you for something to happen in Jesus’ name, and how is that different from simply asking God for something?

3️⃣ The religious leaders were deeply troubled and commanded Peter and John not to speak in Jesus’ name.

Why do you think the name of Jesus provoked such a strong reaction then? Do you see any parallels in today’s world when Jesus is mentioned?

4️⃣ Pastor Blake said, “There is tremendous power in the name of Jesus Christ.”

What specific example or truth about that power resonated most with you from the message?

5️⃣ We were challenged to unleash the power of the name of Jesus against fear, anxiety, discouragement, and spiritual opposition.

In what areas of your life do you feel most “crippled” or held back, and how might you begin to apply the power of Jesus’ name there?

6️⃣ The power of Jesus’ name isn’t just for church—it’s for everyday life.

What does it look like to actively speak and rely on the name of Jesus in your daily routines, conversations, and challenges?

🕊️ Silent Reflection:

Take a quiet moment to reflect on this passage:

“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… And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

— Philippians 2:9–11

What does it mean for Jesus’ name to be above every name in your life and circumstances right now?

7️⃣ Pastor Blake encouraged us to:

Pray in the name of Jesus

Resist the devil in the name of Jesus

Speak the name of Jesus over our lives, marriages, and children

👉 What is one concrete step you can take this week to more intentionally incorporate the name of Jesus into your prayers or daily declarations?

🙏 We’d love to hear your thoughts. Let’s encourage one another and boldly proclaim the name that is above every name—Jesus.
