stand says Then the Lord said, "In the name of Jesus, cast out demons and exercise authority, and cast out their scorpions and serpents.
Do not rejoice over such things as treadmills, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

I just want to thank you."
Accredited by Gamaliel and received an orthodox education under Gamaliel, he has a Roman citizenship that is difficult to enjoy and is fluent in foreign languages.
He was a promising young man with a guaranteed career.
Nevertheless, he said, "The knowledge of Jesus, more precious than all this I have ever had,
throw things away like dung”. He also said, “Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing.
Thank you.” He also said, “My joy is full and I want to share it with you.” Why did such joy overwhelm him?
Is it? It is because he has the conviction that “in heaven is my name”.
We live in despair over the little things, full of cares and sorrows, completely forgetting that my name is in heaven.
There is. Why? That's because you don't know its value.
2. Realize the true value of being a citizen of heaven.
So, of what value is my name in heaven?
First, the confirmation that I will go to heaven even if I die today is guaranteed.
There is no more precious news for a person who is on the verge of a life-changing struggle. This world is like a stranger
There is no one more pitiful than that when it is time to leave and you do not know where you are going at that moment.
But if heaven is guaranteed to you, what greater blessing can there be than this?
Some people say, “Anyway, if it’s not heaven, I’ll go to paradise.” On good days, I go to temples, and when it’s hard, I come to church and sit down.
there is and But the Bible clearly says. Unless you are born again of water and the Spirit, you cannot even see the kingdom of heaven.
All. Therefore, dear saints, the fact that my name is written in heaven is the evidence that I have been born again of water and the Spirit.
And as a guarantee, he has given us the Holy Spirit. It is also a promise that God will protect me. that is, God
Because God protects me, I will never be taken away by hell or Satan the devil.
Either way, he calls us to God, refines it, saves us, and takes care of us. Therefore, God's protection
Please believe that it is a great privilege to be the recipient of this award.
Second, we have been given the privilege of living with the authority of God's children.
The Bible says, “To all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.” which volume
Are you old? It is the authority to answer your prayers. Also, no matter what sins you have committed, you have the authority to be forgiven if you just confess.
It is an authority that has nothing to do with any curses in the world.
Not only that, but we have become objects of adoration by angels in this world.
We are the ones receiving this wonderful blessing. The card of privilege that is like a wonderful VIP that God has given to you is in your heart.
I hope you will use it to the fullest. But you don't know for sure its value until you use it, but try it.
As you know, if you just use that privilege in the field of your life, blessings begin to pour out in your life.
Powers of darkness are cast out of your homes, in the name of Jesus. Sick bodies are healed. Also during worship
God, thank you." If you confess and come before God, God gives you the joy of meeting with Him.
So, the more you use this card, the richer it gets. The joys of this world are only for a brief sojourn,
The joy God has given is valid until we reach eternal heaven.
3. Be thankful that you became a child only through faith in Jesus.

Therefore, my name will be written in the kingdom of heaven, and I will enjoy that authority.
How happy are we that God gave us freely even though we did nothing? God gives you that joy.
I hope you will believe in what you have freely given. Even David and Abraham, whom we know well, look everywhere in the Bible, for God’s sake.
There is no such thing as a big deal. There was only one thing that I believed in God. When David went to fight Goliath, the LORD of hosts
I relied on the name of wa. Abraham believed that God was “the One who gives life to the dead and calls the things that are not as though they were.”
He said, "I hoped and believed while I could not hope." When I believed in God, it became a source of blessings and blessings for all around me and my descendants
have been received But when things go well, they rejoice and when things get a little difficult, they get frustrated and annoyed as if there is no God.
We must now change our ups and downs in faith. If you rely entirely on God, will God help you transcend time and space?
All. Just as blood flows through the blood vessels throughout our body, even at the ends of the earth, God's hand goes crazy and works as a response.
All. This amazing history is happening because of the very fact that my name is already written in heaven. That
Therefore, please believe and rejoice in the fact that “believing in Jesus is the greatest blessing.” Dear saints,
Acknowledge the true value of this joy God has given you, engrave it in your heart, and apply it to the field of your life.
I pray in the name of the Lord that you will become people of abundant blessings.
