My Dad Says

"Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full." (John 16:24, NKJV)

Lieutenant John Eisenhower, son of the late General Dwight Eisenhower, was a member of his father's staff during Word War II. On one occasion General Eisenhower gave his son a message to deliver to a colonel on the front line.

The young lieutenant said to the colonel, "My dad says to watch your right flank." The puzzled officer replied, "Really? And what does your mommy say?"

Obviously the colonel didn't know who young Eisenhower was. Eisenhower didn't make himself known.

It is important that we are known for who we are—not by rank or title—but by our fruit. And think how much authority you have when you come in the Father’s name. When you pray in Jesus name. When you do things in the power and name of the Holy Spirit.

You are a child of the king, you are not a nobody.
