Power in the Name

This summer I have set a goal to read ten books before I have to go back to teaching. So far I have already finished my first five and I am in the process of reading my sixth. This sixth book is about a fallen angel and his take on the beginning of the Bible. I came across a part in the book that I really liked and wanted to share with you. This demon is listening in on the burning bush conversation, when Moses asks God how the Hebrews are suppose to know that god really had sent Moses. That is when God said to tell them that he was the I AM. The demon says that he immediately fell prostrate on the ground because of the power of God's name. He said that he tried everything to get up but he could not move. A goat even comes and sits on him but the power of God's name continued to keep him down.
How awesome a thought is that. The Bible even talks about that at the name of Christ every knee shall bow. That is such an awesome thought to me that just a the sound of his name this power will over come all and that will bow before the King. To be able to worship a God whose name alone contains such great power and that is just his name. How small does that make you feel? Yet this same God is the one who sent his only son to die for you and me, who passionately pursues each one of our hearts. That is the God that we serve. So let's scream it at the top of our lungs that we serve the great I AM!!!!
