Colossians 3:16-17 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts unto God. And whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

As Christians, we are not only to pray in His name, but we are to SAY and DO EVERYTHING in his name. The word of God must ‘dwell richly’ or feel at home in the heart of the believer so much so that he does and says everything by the Word.

Herein is the supreme test of your ACTIONS and your WORDS.

The test for your actions is: WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING, CAN YOU DO IT CALLING UPON THE NAME OF JESUS?

The test for your words is: WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, CAN YOU SPEAK IT AND IN THE SAME BREATH NAME THE NAME OF JESUS?

If you can’t, then the word or deed failed the litmus test of his name. On the other hand, if you are able to bring every word and action of yours to the test of the presence of Jesus Christ, then you will never go wrong. This is how every believer must live – subjecting our every word or action to the litmus test of His name. Hallelujah! Go ahead and practice that in your own life.

Have a wonderful week in His name. Amen.
