Doing Mighty Exploits in Jesus Name

                           
Isa 61:1 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
Luk 4:18 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that are bruised,
To preach good tidings unto the meek , the good news of the abundant life before and after death .           

  Heb 2:13 ASV - And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold, I and the children whom God hath given me.       Since then the children are sharers in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same; that through death he might bring to nought him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and might deliver all them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily not to angels doth he give help, but he giveth help to the seed of Abraham. Wherefore it behooved him in all things to be made like unto his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.   
The promise of eternal life was not given until Christ came , the greatest most precious thing in his sacrifice was that in those three days of his death he rose again to newness of life . And the promise of eternal life was than made abundant to those that believed in him .    Jesus said I not only came to give you life but life More abundant .    Jesus said I am the door unto the father , no man can enter my fathers kingdom but through me .    There is only one way unto the father friends its the life of Christ being manifested in our mortal bodies.  
Gal 2:20 ASV - I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.           1Th 5:23 ASV - And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.     Entire  Greek: holoteles   Whole (Made), Wholly, Wholesome:       "wholly," 1Th 5:23, is lit., "whole-complete" (A, No. 1, and telos, "an end"), i.e., "through and through;" the Apostle's desire is that the sanctification of the believer may extend to every part of his being. The word is similar in meaning to No. 4; holokleros draws attention to the person as a "whole," holoteles, to the several parts which constitute him.
Spirit  Greek: pneuma  Breath, Breathe:  spirit," also denotes "breath," Rev 11:11; 13:15, RV. In 2Th 2:8, the AV has "spirit" for RV, "breath."      primarily denotes "the wind" (akin to pneo, "to breathe, blow"); also "breath;" then, especially "the spirit," which, like the wind, is invisible, immaterial and powerful. The NT uses of the word may be analyzed approximately as follows:
Soul    Greek: psuche   Heart, Heartily:     the soul, or life, is rendered "heart" in Eph 6:6 (marg., "soul"), "doing the will of God from the heart." In Col 3:23, a form of the word psuche preceded by ek, from, lit., "from (the) soul," is rendered "heartily."
Body   Greek: soma           Body, Bodily:          Sometimes the word stands, by synecdoche, for "the complete man," Mat 5:29; 6:22; Rom 12:1; Jam 3:6; Rev 18:13. Sometimes the person is identified with his or her "body," Act 9:37; 13:36, and this is so even of the Lord Jesus, Jhn 19:40 with 42. The "body" is not the man, for he himself can exist apart from his "body," 2Cr 12:2, 3. The "body" is an essential part of the man and therefore the redeemed are not perfected till the resurrection, Hbr 11:40; no man in his final state will be without his "body," Jhn 5:28, 29; Rev 20:13.The word is also used for physical nature, as distinct from pneuma, "the spiritual nature," e.g., 1Cr 5:3, and from psuche, "the soul," e.g., 1Th 5:23. "Soma, 'body,' and pneuma, 'spirit,' may be separated; pneuma and psuche, 'soul,' can only be distinguished"
Gen 2:7 ASV - And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.     God said let US make man in our Image .  And God made man in his Image     Gen 1:27 ASV - And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.      So the father of all things righteous and holy conferred with Christ in his great plan of salvation and said let Us make man in our Image ,             And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.          And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!       It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.    This is a spiritual truth with a physical connotation .    A camel cannot go through the eye of a needle it is impossible , so it is with man that trust in the arm of his flesh and the riches of this world .  Jesus said where ever your heart is there is where your treasure lies .     Luk 12:34 ASV - For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.    Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God .   This verse is speaking of things in the earth and the things that men believe will save them .  For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.   Money is not evil it is the Love of money that will pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Jesus was the us in that verse let us make man in our image , Jesus was the express image of his father . But Jesus said God is a spirit and if you worship him you must worship him in truth and in spirit these are whom the father seeks to worship him .                               Jhn 4:23 ASV - But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.
Jhn 4:24 ASV - God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.   Worship in Whose spirit and whose truth .  Adam became a living soul by the Zoe of God his very life .     Life   Greek: zoe   Life, Living, Lifetime, Life-Giving:
(Eng., "zoo," "zoology") is used in the NT "of life as a principle, life in the absolute sense, life as God has it, that which the Father has in Himself, and which He gave to the Incarnate Son to have in Himself, Jhn 5:26, and which the Son manifested in the world, 1Jo 1:2. From this life man has become alienated in consequence of the Fall, Eph 4:18, and of this life men become partakers through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Jhn 3:15, who becomes its Author to all such as trust in Him, Act 3:15, and who is therefore said to be 'the life' of the believer, Col 3:4, for the life that He gives He maintains, Jhn 6:35, 63. Eternal life is the present actual possession of the believer because of his relationship with Christ, Jhn 5:24; 1Jo 3:14, and that it will one day extend its domain to the sphere of the body is assured by the Resurrection of Christ, 2Cr 5:4; 2Ti 1:10. This life is not merely a principle of power and mobility, however, for it has moral associations which are inseparable from it, as of holiness and righteousness. Death and sin, life and holiness, are frequently contrasted in the Scriptures.
God breath his life in you also when you were first born and you breath that first breath it was Gods breath you breath.     Jhn 1:2 ASV - The same was in the beginning with God.
Jhn 1:3 ASV - All things were made through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made.
Jhn 1:4 ASV - In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Eph 1:3 ASV - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ:
Eph 1:4 ASV - even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love:
Eph 1:5 ASV - having foreordained us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Eph 1:6 ASV - to the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved:
Eph 1:7 ASV - in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
Eph 1:8 ASV - which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
Eph 1:9 ASV - making known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
Eph 1:10 ASV - unto a dispensation of the fulness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things upon the earth; in him, I say,
Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name:     Become   Greek: ginomai  Arise, Arose, Arouse, Raise, Rise, Rouse  "to become, to take place," is sometimes suitably translated "arise;"    Children    Greek: teknon  Child, Children, Childbearing, Childish, Childless:  "a child" (akin to tikto, "to beget, bear"), is used in both the natural and the figurative senses. In contrast to huios, "son" (see below), it gives prominence to the fact of birth, whereas huios stresses the dignity and character of the relationship. Figuratively, teknon is used of "children"  We are babes in Christ to began our walk with him and we must continue in this walk our journey to become Sons of God huios .                                        Eph 4:12 ASV - for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:
Eph 4:13 ASV - till we all attain unto the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a fullgrown man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
Eph 4:14 ASV - that we may be no longer children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;
Eph 4:15 ASV - but speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, even Christ;
Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name.  It is not Just saying the name of Jesus it is believing on or in his name .   unbroken "continuance," is used of the continuous Priesthood of Christ, Hbr 7:3, and of the "continual" offering of sacrifices under the Law, Hbr 10:1. It is translated "for ever," in Hbr 10:12, of the everlasting session of Christ at the right hand of God; and in Hbr 10:14, of the everlasting effects of His sacrifice upon "them that are sanctified."  Jesus said in his name we as sons of God shall do greater things than he has done .   I am reminded of a verse in the prophecy of the last days    Dan 11:32 ASV - And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he pervert by flatteries; but the people that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.      Greater things shall you do in my Name !    mighty exploits shall follow those who believe in the power of his name  .
     Exploits   make full use of and derive benefit from (a resource).  To exploit in the world is to is to take advantage of the weak rule over .   But in this verse its meaning is opposite ! it is to exploit the power of darkness the power of the anti Christ and his deeds.  Through the power of Christ name .  Keep in mind where we started with this thought ,  its just not saying the name it is living in his name ,  Jesus told his disciples he was going away ( speaking of his death and his resurrection ) and he said that where I am going you may come there to .   And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.   And whither I go, ye know the way.    Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?    Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
The word name in the   Greek: onoma    for all that a "name" implies, of authority, character, rank, majesty, power, excellence, etc., of everything that the "name" covers: representing the authority of Christ, e.g., Mat 18:5 (with epi, "on the ground of My authority"  in the power of Mar 16:17

Jhn 1:13 ASV - who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.  Adam was a living soul but Jesus was a life giving spirit .   1Co 15:45 ASV - So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
To be born again of God means we must lose our identity to this world and take on life and the nature of Christ in you the hope of glory.         1Jo 2:16 ASV - For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the  .    He said he is the way the truth and the LIFE!  Rom 12-1      I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
Jhn 10:1 ASV - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
Jhn 10:2 ASV - But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Jhn 10:7 ASV - Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jhn 10:8 ASV - All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
Jhn 10:12 ASV - He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth them:   
1Ti 4:1 ASV - But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,
That falling away is here now and working in the hearts of men ,  fall at his cross and ask the Lord to revel his word of truth to you . You need his spirit living in you you need the same  Holy Spirit living in you as in the book of Acts  on the day of Pentecost .  Ask the father to fill you with his spirit .                  
Luk 11:13 ASV - If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
