Through prayer the most incredible answers are received. Jesus often taught that the promises and answers to prayers were received when prayers were offered in His Name.
“Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.†(John 14:13-14, NASB)
“Prayer reaches its highest level when offered in the Name which is above every name, for it lifts the petitioner into unity and identity with himself.â€
(Samuel Chadwick, The Path of Prayer, page 32)
In The Path of Prayer, Samuel Chadwick points out that Jesus never explained what was meant by praying in His Name. The Israelites understood what was in a name, in His Name.
What do we need to understand about His Name?
