And it came to pass, on the next day, that their rulers, elders, and scribes, as well as Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem. And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, “By what power or by what name have you done this?”
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders of Israel: If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole. This is the ‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’ Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

Another great "name" scripture...I do think we need to meditate on the power of His name. Somehow I missed your last post...the petticoat is GREAT...so fun. It will be fun to see the room transformation.
okay...I think it's time for me to go sit down and quietly knit...I've had a crazy week. I didn't even connect that your scripture was the same as one of mine....you posted so much more and I was taking it all in. Too funny...
I have so often forgotten the power found in simply HIS Name. Thank you for the reminder.
Amen, amen! I love the name of Jesus!
I love this! Isn't it amazing how the scripture comes to mean so much more when you pay attention to one little word? One word with a big meaning.

Oh, the name of Jesus! Just to begin my morning with His name in my heart and on my lips brings peace.
Thank you for sweet words of life.
Blessings,
