But everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved. – Acts 2:24 (NLT)
CALL ON THE LORD’S HOUSE
A poem and essay by ILMA
If you call on the name of the Lord
You are praising and giving him laud
Everyone who calls on the name of Jesus
He hears them and he considers them precious.
When you feel helpless and discouraged
Declare his name and you will be encouraged
The name of Jesus can save and it has power
Say his name out loud to make the devil cower.

Have you ever known someone who is so powerful? Adolf Hitler rose to power during the World War II. Although he began his service in the first world war, it wasn’t until the second one that he began to believe the ideology that he needs to annihilate the Jews. His name became something that many people feared because he lived to propagate violence and death. I am sure that those who worked for him, used his powerful name to continue the cause he started, but for those whom he victimized, it was a terrifying name.
On the other hand, there is a name that is above all names and is the most powerful. That name is Jesus. Philippians 2:9-11 says that every knew will bow to his name because God has exalted him and gave him the name above all names. If you call on his name, you will be saved.
