Power in His Name

Peace of Living

#41 - Since becoming the prophet and president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Russell M. Nelson has emphasized the importance of calling the Church by its correct name.

In the October 2018 General Conference, President Nelson said, “To remove the Lord’s name from the Lord’s Church is a major victory for Satan. When we discard the Savior’s name, we are subtly disregarding all that Jesus Christ did for us—even His Atonement.”

But there’s another reason why we should intentionally use and say His name regularly: His name has power.

In a 2019 address to seminary and institute teachers, Elder Ronald A. Rasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said, “Try just saying the name 'Jesus Christ' in a perilous setting with one who has lost hope. Just calling upon Him by name, with reverence, can make a difference in a difficult moment.”

This is something we’ve experienced for ourselves and today we’re talking about it.

Thank you for listening — and we hope you’ll talk about Jesus more after you do!
