RCCG Open Heavens 15 October 2026 Today Message by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

Names are very powerful; they reveal many things about a person. For example, if you meet someone who bears the surname of the president of your country, you will be curious to know whether he or she is related to the president or not. When you discover that such a person is related to the president, you will automatically think that he or she is wealthy, influential, and has direct access to the president. This is also what obtains in our relationship with God. When a person is born again, he or she becomes a child of God. Such a person automatically takes on God’s name and has unhindered access to Him.

I still remember the first time a Head of State invited me to his home. When I arrived at the first gate, I was asked where I was going, and I replied, “The president asked me to come and see him.” The security personnel then checked their records to confirm my invitation. I scaled through the first gate, and when I got to the second gate, I was thoroughly checked. I got to the third gate, and the same check was carried out on me, despite the fact that the personnel at the gate saw that I had been checked at the second gate. When I moved on to the fourth gate, I said, “Oh God, I thank You because I have Jesus. I thank You because anytime I want to talk to You, all I have to say is ‘in the name of Jesus.'” No matter how pressing an issue is, all I need to say is ‘in Jesus’ name’, and God’s ears will be open to my cry.

God’s name also shields believers from the enemy’s attacks. Proverbs 18:10 tells us that: “The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” In other words, if enemies are pursuing you, you can call on the name of the Lord; His name will become a strong tower around you, and the enemy will not be able to harm you.

The Bible says in Psalm 27:1-3 that if your enemies are running after you and are about to catch up, they will stumble and fall. As we see in today’s Bible reading, every knee shall bow at the name of Jesus! I decree that the name of the Lord will be your shield, delivering you and your family from every attack of the enemy, in Jesus’ name.

Prayer Point:
Father, thank You for the power in the name of Jesus. I decree that His name shields me and my family from every attack of the enemy, in Jesus’ name.

Bible in One Year:
Mark 6-7

We at His feet may fall!
We’ll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him Lord of all.
We’ll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him Lord of all.
