John, the writer of Revelation, receives a vision of the risen Jesus, revealing him as the glorified Son of Man, full of power and authority.

We see that God is on the move by His Holy Spirit. God doing something new, right here and now, and we are invited to be all in!

The Name That Reigns - Jesus’ name is exalted above every power and authority. His reign is secure in heaven and over all creation.

Jesus’ name has authority over evil and brokenness, bringing restoration and freedom.

The name of Jesus and the message of the cross are foolishness to the world

but are the power and wisdom of God. His name humbles human pride and wisdom.

The name of Jesus demands allegiance. It brings division because it forces a choice — neutrality is not an option. We are choosing to lift Jesus’ name against divided loyalties and worldly wisdom.

The name of Jesus disrupts darkness and injustice. It upends spiritual strongholds and confronts oppressive systems.

The apostles refuse to stop speaking in Jesus’ name, declaring, “We must obey God rather than men.” His name calls us to courage and obedience above all else.

Jesus' life on earth was to glorify the father in heaven and make him known. We too can make that our life's purpose again, to glorify God in all things.

In John 17, we're reminded of Jesus' prayer that we would be united under God's love, and demonstrate that to one another.
